πŸ³πŸ‘¨β€πŸ³ Pagmatngon sa pagluto. Ayaw biya-i ang kalan samtang nagluto. Siguroha nga mapalong ang stove human gamiton ug ibutang ang mga flammable materials, sama sa papel, panapton, ug plastic, layo sa kalayo.

πŸ‘ΆπŸ‘§πŸ‘¦ Ayaw itugyan sa gagmay nga mga bata ang paghaling o pag-atiman sa kalayo. Basin makalimtan nila ang pagpawong niini o mahimong aksidente nga mokaylap ang kalayo.

🧯Kung mahimo, magbutang og fire extinguisher sa balay ug hibaloan sa tanang hamtong sa pamilya kung unsaon kini paggamit. Ibutang kini sa lugar nga dali ma-access.

πŸ“ž Kung adunay sunog, ayaw usiki ang oras. Gawas dayon sa luwas nga lugar ug tawag dayon sa 911 o sa inyong lokal nga Bureau of Fire Protection (BFP). Ayaw na pagbalik sa sulod sa nasunog nga balay aron kuhaon ang mga butang.

Ang sunog mahimong magsugod sa gamay nga butang, apan ang kadaot mahimo’g dako. Prevention is always better than regret.

Hinaot nga kitang tanan mahimong mas alerto, responsable, ug andam.
