Fires in Missoula

Information from the National Fire Prevention Association (NFPA) shows that fire prevention is possible any time of the year. Across the United States, firefighters respond to an average of 350,000 home structure fires every year, which adds to the total of $6.9 billion in property damage.

• The largest risks for all types of fires (residential, commercial, wild) are from humans:
  • Cooking
  • Heating
  • Electrical equipment
  • Smoking (really? You don’t know better by now?)
  • Campfires, fireworks (wildfires)
  • Sparks from equipment, driving (wildfires)
  • Candles
• Cooking while tired or drunk is a risk factor for fire, so consider making sandwiches or ordering in
• Home fires peak daily between 5:00 pm and 8:00 pm
• Home fires also peak on weekends (Saturdays and Sundays)

What SERVPRO of Missoula Will Do

When you call our office, we’ll ask several questions designed to help us send the right team members and the right equipment. While we can always send more people and add equipment, we know how important it is to start doing the job correctly as soon as possible.

Trivia Break!

According to this week’s Committee for Nearly Useless Knowledge, the favorite comfort food across Montana in 2020 was tomato soup.

There are so many variables to consider:

• Tomato soup thickened with cream for a richer (equals less healthy) vibe or water?
• Sherry or some other alcohol instead?
• Basil in the warmer months, sure, but what about winter?
• Tortellini or other pasta?
• Chili peppers, jalapenos, or mild?
• Alone or to accompany a grilled cheese sandwich?
