As you're decorating your home for the holiday season,Regional Fire Marshall in Saint John, Jeff Croft, has a few fire safety tips to keep in mind.
He says, check your extension cords for damage before use.
"Make sure that they're not damaged, or that they aren't running under carpets, or in a high traffic area."
He adds, make sure you inspect your Christmas lights for cuts in the wires before putting them on. Especially if you use them year after year.
