Follow these simple tips to prevent wildfires from getting out of control:

 

– Avoid outdoor burning until conditions improve.

– Secure dragging trailer chains.

– Operate equipment (chainsaws, off-road vehicles, lawnmowers, etc.) early in the morning or late in the day to avoid sparks at peak burn hours.

– Report fires early and call 911.

– Check current fire danger, wildfire reports and burning restrictions on the DNR’s website: https://apps.dnr.wi.gov/wisburn/#/
