KIDS?
Young children should always have an adult present when using fireworks. What about sparklers you might ask? Yep – even sparklers should have adult supervision.
LICENSE?
Dizzy Dean’s Fireworks is a licensed distributor of Fireworks. Don’t purchase fireworks from unlicensed sellers. Fireworks that backfire aren’t that much fun.
LOCATION?
Always remember to scout out a good safe place to shoot off your fireworks. A flat area away from dry debris. The more fireproof the ground is the better. Flat and level with nothing overhead and away from homes.
VIEWING DISTANCE?
As spectators of the glorious show that fireworks can be when performed properly, we should keep our distance and respect the sparks. Try to stay at least 200′ away [about the maximum distance they would shoot if turned sideways.]
HOW MANY AT ONCE?
If you are wondering about how many fireworks you should light at once, one at a time is the rule of thumb for holiday gatherings.
BODY PLACEMENT?
Never place your body directly over a fireworks device. They are made for fun at a safe distance. If they are too close, they can cause internal damage.
POCKETS?
Keep fireworks in their proper place. Out of pockets and glass containers. No reason to risk getting hurt.
DUDS?
Don’t pick up any fireworks that don’t fire. Stay on the fun side and leave it alone. Reigniting a firework that doesn’t go off can be VERY dangerous.
