At PyroNexa Fireworks, we love seeing people enjoy fireworks—but we care even more about your safety. Whether you’re lighting up the sky for a holiday or just having some backyard fun, it’s important to handle fireworks the right way. Here’s a simple, no-nonsense guide to help you stay safe while having a great time.
Fireworks Safety Guide
1. Always Read the Instructions First
Before you light anything, take a moment to read the label. Place fireworks on a flat, stable surface and make sure they won’t tip over.
2. Choose a Safe Place to Light Up
Only use fireworks outdoors, away from buildings, trees, dry grass, or anything flammable. Pick an open space, and make sure the wind is blowing away from people.
3. Keep It Away from People
Never point fireworks at anyone, even as a joke. Don’t use fireworks inside the house, near windows, or on balconies.
4. Kids? Adults Only, Please
Children should never handle fireworks. Let the grown-ups take care of lighting.
5. Store Them the Right Way
Keep your fireworks in a cool, dry spot, far from any heat source. Have a bucket of water or a garden hose nearby—just in case.
6. Pets Don’t Like Fireworks
Loud noises can scare animals. Keep your pets indoors where they’ll feel safe.
7. Don’t Forget Cleanup
When the show’s over, soak used fireworks in water before throwing them away. Never toss hot debris in the trash.
8. Important Reminders
- Only buy fireworks from trusted, legal sellers.
- Don’t make your own fireworks.
- Got a “dud” that didn’t go off? Don’t relight it. Wait 15 minutes, then soak it in water.
What to Do If Someone Gets Hurt
Even when you’re careful, accidents can happen. Here’s how to handle the most common firework injuries:
For Burns:
- Move away from the fire right away.
- Rinse the burn with cool water (not ice) for 10–15 minutes.
- Cover it loosely with a clean cloth or sterile dressing.
- If clothes are on fire, stop, drop, and roll.
- Never apply creams, oils, or home remedies.
- Get medical help right away.
For Bleeding or Cuts:
- If there’s serious bleeding, press a clean towel on the wound.
- If blood is spurting, tie a cloth or band just above the injury to slow it.
- Loosen the band every hour for a few minutes to check blood flow.
- Cover the wound and keep it clean.
- For eye injuries, don’t touch or rub the eye—rinse gently and cover it.
- Get medical help right away.
Final Thoughts: Safety Is the Best Part of the Celebration
Fireworks bring joy, wonder, and unforgettable memories—but only when used responsibly. By following these safety practices and knowing what to do in case of an emergency, you can enjoy every sparkle with peace of mind.
