According to the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), more grilling fires happen in July and August than in any other month.  SERVPRO^® of Otay Mesa/San Ysidro offers these tips from the NFPA to keep you safe while grilling this summer season in Jamul:

Safety Tips

• The grill should be placed well away from the home, deck railings, and out from under eaves and overhanging branches
• Keep children and pets at least three feet away from the grill area
• Keep your grill clean by removing grease or fat buildup from the grills and in trays below the grill
• Never leave your grill unattended
• Always make sure your gas grill lid is open before lighting it

Charcoal Grills

• Charcoal chimney starters allow you to start the charcoal using newspaper as a fuel
• If you use a starter fluid, use only charcoal starter fluid
• Never add charcoal fluid or any other flammable liquids to the fire
• Keep charcoal fluid out of the reach of children and away from heat sources
• When you are finished grilling, let the coals completely cool before disposing of them in a metal container
