You’re being reminded that dead grass, weeds, and brush dry out quickly and can ignite quickly.
The reminder from the North Grenville Fire Department comes as the warmer weather arrives.
They say you should also be careful with any open flames as bonfires, sparks, and embers can easily start a fire in these conditions.
Officials say you should never throw cigarette butts out the car window as what seems small can spark a fast-moving grass fire.
If you’re planning to burn, they say you must get your permit first and you can contact the North Grenville Fire Department if you have any questions.
