Safety Resources
Defensible Space
Establish vital fire-resistant buffers by clearing dead vegetation and thinning high-risk fuels within 100 feet of your structure to slow the spread of radiant heat.
Hardscape Buffers
Utilize non-combustible material zones—such as gravel paths, masonry walls, and stone borders—to create physical fuel breaks that halt fire progression at the perimeter.
Effective Fuel Mitigation
Eliminate ladder fuels by pruning low limbs and clearing ground litter, preventing surface fires from reaching the canopy and transforming into dangerous crown fires.
