CANDLE FIRE SAFETY PSA - Winter Fire Safety Campaign, December, 2011 Now is the time to focus on candle fire safety as you put up or are already enjoying your holiday decorations. This time of year, the use of candles increases. Have you seen the battery-operated candles? They are fire safe and look very much like lighted candles. If you must use lighted candles, ensure that you place them in sturdy holders. Keep them out of reach of children and pets, and never leave burning candles unattended. This message is brought to you by the United States Fire Administration, your local fire department, and this radio station.
