When buying a tree, make sure its fresh. Needles should be soft not brittle
Only use lights listed by a testing laboratory
Follow the manufacturer's instructions on how to use tree lights
Always unplug Christmas tree lights before leaving home or going to bed
Never use lights with worn or broken cords or loose bulb connections
Never use lit candles near trees
Water trees daily to keep them moist
If you have an artificial tree, make sure it is fire-retardant
Always watch children when they are around the tree
Position trees near an outlet so that cords are not running long distances
Safely dispose of the tree when it begins dropping needles. Dried-out trees are highly flammable and should not be left in a house or garage, or placed against the house
