The most important thing you can do to protect your home is to clear combustible materials from the first 5 ft around your house. Then, if a wildfire blows burning embers your way, there is nothing next to your home to ignite. learn more at firesafemarin.org #MarinCounty
Lo más importante que puedes hacer para proteger tu hogar es remover materiales combustibles que estén dentro de 5 pies de tu hogar. De esta manera, si un incendio forestal arroja brasas ardientes hacia tu area, no habrá nada alrededor de tu hogar para encenderlo. #MarinCounty
Wildfire Disclosures at the point of sale in California were enacted in 2021. Take a look at what this means for home buyers and sellers in Marin. ⬇ ⬇ ⬇ resources.firesafemarin.org/wp-content/upl…
"...residents must learn and do more to protect ourselves and our families; to harden our homes, to clear combustibles, to plan and practice evacuations; and to help and get our neighbors to do the same." — Stephen Keese, Fairfax marinij.com/2024/04/16/mar…
