It’s tradition - parades, cookouts and fireworks to celebrate the Fourth of July. Most fireworks injuries occur in June and July and the most common injuries are children and teens receiving firecracker and sparkler burns.
Before you set off fireworks, plan carefully so no one gets hurt.
- Read and follow directions on the label
- Only light fireworks on a flat surface away from buildings, dry leaves or other flammable materials
- Wear eye protection
- Light only one item at a time and never re-light a "dud" firework
- Dispose of fireworks properly. Soak in water before putting in a trash can
- Have a responsible adult in charge
- Do not give fireworks to children
