Bonfire making in the garden
It is important to always have a large bucket of water within reach in case the fire spreads to dry grass or similar. The water can also be used to extinguish any embers on sticks that have been used around the fire, and should damage occur, the water can be used to soothe burns.
The water can also be used to extinguish the last embers properly to ensure that the fire cannot flare up again when you leave it.
Always use clean and dry wood. Painted and pressure-treated wood should not be burned on the fire as it emits both smoke and ash, which are toxic and harmful to the environment. Damp wood will also produce a lot of smoke.
Never use garden waste. Garden waste produces heavy smoke and is also illegal to burn in urban areas and summer cottage areas.
Light the fire with briquettes or newspaper.
Never use lighter fluid or gasoline.
Light the fire with the large pieces of firewood at the bottom and the brushwood at the top. It's like in a wood-burning stove.
