Be Prepared: Wildfire Season is Here

March 1 marked the start of Alberta’s wildfire season and there are many things you can start now to #BePrepared. Try these tips: 

  • Remove combustible items from within five feet of your home, such as leaves, dried branches, firewood, debris, and lawn furniture.  

  • Create a pet and livestock plan in case of an evacuation. Use FireSmart methods to protect livestock enclosures and barns.    

  • Download the Alberta Wildfire app to your smart phone or visit their website to keep up-to-date on the status of wildfires, fire bans and restrictions, and learn more about wildfire prevention.  

Wildfires are one of many hazards that can impact Albertans every year. Know the risks in your area to better protect yourself and your loved ones.
