Thanksgiving Day Electric Knife Fire in Cottage Hill?

Home Cooking Safety Tips
Thanksgiving is one of the busiest fire emergency days in the United States. According to the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), fires occur on this day because of all of the activity, people, and cooking that surrounds this day and other winter holidays. Every year SERVPRO® of North Pensacola witnesses firsthand the damage fire emergencies cause in Cottage Hill, and we have technicians on call through our 24-hour emergency service every day. Here are some tips from the NFPA on ways to prevent cooking fires in your home this year:
- Keep knives out of the reach of children.
- Be sure electric cords from an electric knife, coffee maker, plate warmer or mixer are not dangling off the counter within easy reach of a child.
- Keep matches and utility lighters out of the reach of children — up high in a locked cabinet.
- Never leave children alone in room with a lit candle.
- Keep the floor clear so you don’t trip over kids, toys, pocketbooks or bags.
- Make sure your smoke alarms are working. Test them by pushing the test button.
