The poster reinforces the message of every agency to reduce human-caused fires - "Think smart. Don't let wildfires start." Click here to download and print your own color poster. Feel free to use the poster to spread the word in your business or your neighborhood about fire danger and fire restrictions.
 
 Prevention Spotlight
     Be Careful With All Your Outdoor Activites
  Let's look at ways you can prevent wildfires you might not have thought much about. Did you know that under current conditions, ricocheting bullets can start fires? And if you travel off-road, your 1000 degree catalytic muffler can act like a torch across the landscape? And how about that power saw and lawnmower at your house? When was the last time you had the spark arrester/muffler system checked? You CAN prevent wildfires by being careful, being smart and following all fire restrictions and closures.
