Holiday Safety Reminders

Holiday Safety Tip Reminders

It is Christmas Eve, so most likely you are long done with putting up your holiday decorations. You are waiting for your guests to arrive for the holiday. You are running around preparing or traveling, excited for the relaxing holiday to officially start. But before you relax, take a minute to ensure that you followed these holiday safety tips:

1) Some holiday plants can be poisonous or cause stomach problems. Keep plants such as mistletoe, Jerusalem cherry, and holiday berries out of children's reach.

2) Make sure your tree is away from heat sources such as fireplaces and radiators. Make sure it is not blocking an exit. If it is real, make sure to keep it watered so it doesn't dry too fast. If it is artificial, make sure it's fire resistant.

3) Place ornaments with small, detachable parts higher up on the tree, out of reach for children and pets.

4) Indoor and outdoor lights are labeled for a reason. Make sure you are using them properly and that the outlets you are using are working properly and safe.

5) When preparing food with/for your guests, do not defrost food at room temperature. Make sure your knives are sharpened. Use paper towels, not dishrags, to clean your counters.
