Don't let a kitchen mishap ruin the holiday magic. ✨ Keep these Thanksgiving fire safety tips in mind so you can focus on what matters most: family and great food.

Wishing everyone a safe and happy Thanksgiving! 🦃🍂

🍂 Did you know that Thanksgiving Day sees a massive 388% spike in home cooking fires compared to any other day of the year?

With multiple dishes on the stove and guests arriving, it’s incredibly easy to get distracted. In fact, national data shows that unattended cooking is the #1 cause of these kitchen fires.

As you prepare your holiday feast this November, keep your celebrations safe with these quick tips from SERVPRO:
🍳 Never leave the stove unattended while frying, boiling, or grilling.
🚫 Keep a 3-foot kid-free zone around the oven and hot prep areas.
🥘 Keep a lid nearby to safely smother the flames if a small grease fire breaks out. Never throw water on a grease fire!

If a holiday cooking mishap leaves smoke, soot, or fire damage behind, remember your local SERVPRO team is here to help make it "Like it never even happened."

Have a safe and happy holiday season! 🦃✨
