Even though it is April and our traditional wildfire season is months away, it is a good time to prepare for what can be a scary season in Southern California. October is too late!
I took a class today on Home Hardening. "What is that?" you say. Home Hardening is doing improvements to your home which will help protect it in the event a wildfire should enter your property.
Some things, like cleaning out brush around your home, are easy to identify and just take physical labor. Others, like using fire-resistant materials on your home, may require you to spend money but the end result could be worth it.
Here is a fantastic website to give you more ideas on what you can do to prepare for fire season.
