6 Christmas Tree Safety Tips to Consider This Holiday Season

• Make sure your tree is as fresh as possible

  Share

  Potential freshness warning signs to look for in a Christmas tree is how vibrant the green needles are and how easy it is for the needles to be plucked from the tree.

• Always keep your tree watered

  Share

  This is a common Christmas tree safety tip that most are aware of, but it can't be stressed enough. Always make sure your tree base has plenty of water to prevent your tree from drying out. A dry tree is more likely to catch on fire.

• Keep your tree away from any and all heat sources

  Share

  Whether they're candles, heat vents or fireplaces, your tree should be far away from anything that could dry it out or cause a fire.
• Confirm all of your lights are safety tested

  Share

• Turn off your Christmas tree lights before bedtime

  Share

  Never leave your Christmas tree on overnight. This could lead to excessively drying out your tree, which could lead to a fire.

• Keep a fire extinguisher nearby

  Share

  Hopefully, you'll never have to deal with a Christmas tree fire, but it never hurts to err on the side of caution and keep a fire extinguisher nearby just in case.
