🚨 GENERATOR PSA 🚨

Using a generator indoors or in a garage = Carbon Monoxide poisoning risk.

💥Always use generators outside! Away from openings!💥

CO has no smell, no color, no warning — just deadly consequences.
✔️ Use generators outdoors
✔️ Keep them far from windows & doors
✔️ Install CO alarms on every level of your home

Power smart. Protect lives.

A quick shovel today could save a home tomorrow. 🏠🔥

Thanks for being a great neighbor! 💙

Accidents like this can happen so fast. Stories like this are a good reminder to pet-proof our homes just like we child-proof them.
