Spring has sprung, and now is the perfect time to start thinking about how you can protect your home and community from the dangers of wildfire.

A great place to start is with FireSmart BC's Homeowner’s Manual. This free, step-by-step guide is packed with information on how wildfires grow and spread, how to spot vulnerabilities in a structure, and how to store fuel sources at a safe distance.

By implementing the tips found in the manual, you can mitigate the potential fire risks on your property, reduce the opportunities for embers to ignite, and make your home more defensible for firefighters, allowing them to spend more time suppressing the fire itself.
