Plan, act to protect your home from wildland fire

Jun 15, 2021 to Jun 17, 2021 With fire season already beginning in parts of the West, Washington State University Extension Forestry experts say it’s never too late to take steps to protect your home and forests. Extension educators train landowners to safeguard their property by minimizing fuels in the forest and eliminating combustibles in the vicinity of the home. These methods can substantially lower risks from all but the most intense fires. Prepare zones of defense Prioritize the first 40 feet around your home, advises Sean Alexander, WSU Extension’s Northeast Washington Forester. He and fellow Extension foresters follow the National Fire Protection Association’s Firewise USA guidelines, instructing homeowners to defend the home ignition zones, a triple set of boundaries that include the first five feet out from your home’s exterior walls; the next 30 feet; and the extended landscape beyond.
