Sparklers are usually used in the dark, and young children might be excited and even running with sparklers.\u00a0While they may seem harmless, sparklers can burn at up to 1,200 degrees, and young children are often not able to hold sparklers far enough away from their bodies with their little arms.<a title=\"\" href=\"#ftn3\">[3]<\/a>\u00a0 Glow sticks can be a safer alternative for young children.<a title=\"\" href=\"#ftn4\">[4]<\/a><\/p>\n<h2>Illegal Fireworks<\/h2>\n<p>Illegal fireworks can also be a serious hazard. The federal government has banned a variety of fireworks that are exceptionally dangerous. These illegal fireworks include: large reloadable mortar shells, cherry bombs, M-80 salutes, larger firecrackers containing more than two grains of powder, as well as build-your-own firework kits.<a title=\"\" href=\"#ftn5\">[5]<\/a>\u00a0 Consumers should not buy or fire illegal fireworks.<\/p>\n<h2>Wildfires<\/h2>\n<p>Fireworks can also cause wildfires. Fire officials from the Virginia Department of Forestry (VDOF) warn that even fireworks that have burned out are hot enough to start a wildfire.<a title=\"\" href=\"#ftn6\">[6]<\/a>\u00a0 To avoid the threat of wildfires, it is important to keep a bucket of water or a garden hose close by when lighting fireworks.<\/p>\n<h2>Conclusion<\/h2>\n<p>Safety must always be the first priority. One of the safest ways to enjoy fireworks is to attend a professional firework show, and avoid handling or firing consumer fireworks completely. Otherwise, be mindful of children and pets, and always take proper safety precautions when firing consumer fireworks.<\/p>\n<p>For more firework safety tips, visit http:\/\/www.fireworkssafety.org\/safety-tips\/.<\/p>\n<div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<hr align=\"left\" size=\"1\" width=\"33%\" \/>\n<p><a title=\"\" name=\"ftn1\"><\/a>[1] For an approved list of permissible fireworks, <em>see<\/em> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.vafire.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">http:\/\/www.vafire.com\/<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"\" name=\"ftn2\"><\/a>[2] <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cpsc.gov\/Safety-Education\/Safety-Education-Centers\/Fireworks\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/www.cpsc.gov\/Safety-Education\/Safety-Education-Centers\/Fireworks\/<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"\" name=\"ftn3\"><\/a>[3] <a href=\"https:\/\/www.safekids.org\/tip\/fireworks-safety-tips\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/www.safekids.org\/tip\/fireworks-safety-tips<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"\" name=\"ftn4\"><\/a>[4] <em>Id<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"\" name=\"ftn5\"><\/a>[5] <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cpsc.gov\/PageFiles\/121339\/012.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/www.cpsc.gov\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"\" name=\"ftn6\"><\/a>[6] http:\/\/www.dof.virginia.gov\/fire\/safety\/fireworks.htm<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Los fuegos artificiales pueden ser una tradici\u00f3n popular y divertida del 4 de julio.
