Please don’t leave campfires and braais unattended or braai when there is strong wind. Unattended fires can cause #wildfires. Make sure braai fires are extinguished completely before you leave. And ensure that any coals you throw out cannot start a wildfire. #FireSeason2023_24

Here’s a good tip to protect your home. Remove any dry material (including firewood) from close to infrastructure that can burn. Dry material can ignite and/or embers can land on dry material and cause a fire.

Make sure that your firefighting resources are in working condition. ✔ Are fire hydrants accessible for firefighters? ✔ Is your fire unit ready for use? ✔ Have they been maintained? ✔ Have you cleared your entrance routes for fire engines to access your property?

#DidYouKnow that not all fires are bad? In the #Overberg, our fynbos is renewed by fire - and in fact, depends on fire. When fires are planned and controlled, they can be very helpful to the environment. #FireSeason2023/24
