Thanks, chief, for articulating the need to extinguish butts in deep, metal cans or ashtrays full of sand or water. @NFPA messaging: Do not throw out cigarettes into vegetation, potted plants or landscaping, peat moss, dried grass, mulch, leaves – they can easily catch fire.
This video captures a fire at a DNV residence that was ignited from a discarded cigarette, 6 hours prior. Chief Hutchinson speaks on the dangers of the improper disposal of cigarettes in hot and dry environments. We all need to be vigilant with fire safety in our community.
