Home Hazard Hunt

Have you looked around your house lately?  There are hazards around.  Now is the time to do something about them.

Some types of hazards to look for:

  • Physical Hazards (such as broken glass (including windows), furniture (broken) or metal.
  • Chemical Hazards (such as cleaners, paint, fuels) - can they be discarded safely?
  • Fire Hazards (wood, paper, wiring, car)
  •  Food (rusted or bulging cans, boxes with holes may indicate rodent damage, expired foods - all need to be discarded)

Here is a very good video from the Sioux Falls Fire Department:
