Fireworks Safety and You
The Fourth of July is for fun, family, friends and fireworks! But did you know that thousands of firework-related injuries are treated in the emergency room every year? Consider these facts and tips to prevent injuries during your July Fourth celebration.
Grab a blanket and a patch of lawn and enjoy fireworks at public displays conducted by professionals.
Did you know?
- Burns are the most common firework-related injury.
- Most injuries are caused by firecrackers, sparklers and bottle rockets.
- The most frequently injured body parts are the hands, head/neck and eyes.
If consumer fireworks are legal to buy where you live, follow these safety tips:
- Never allow young children to handle fireworks.
- Never use fireworks while impaired by drugs or alcohol.
- Never hold lighted fireworks in your hands.
- Never point or throw fireworks at another person.
- Never ignite devices in a container.
- Never try to re-light or handle malfunctioning fireworks.
- Wear protective eyewear when handling fireworks.
- Always have a water supply nearby in case of a fire or mishap.
Beware of sparklers:
- They burn at about 2,000 degrees.
- They can quickly ignite clothing.
- Sparklers alone account for more than 25% of emergency room visits for firework injuries.
