Sadly, a lit candle caused another fire this month, causing extensive damage. If you use real candles, make sure to take these steps to stay safe.
Incense and candles can become fire hazards when not used properly.
- Keep incense and candles away from curtains and other things that can catch on fire. Small children should never be left unsupervised when candles or incense is lit.
