Christmas Tree Advice From State Fire Marshal

The Illinois Fire Marshal's Office warns the public to be aware when lighting up the Christmas tree after Thanksgiving.

 

According to J.C. Fultz, a spokesman for the fire marshal's office, the public needs to do the 'needle test' before putting up the festive lights.

 

 

According to the National Fire Protection Association, over 7-hundred fifty house fires are caused due to lights around the house. Another recommendation - never overload outlets.
