Get Your Home Ready for a Safe Halloween

Protect your Halloween guests by taking these steps around your home.

Whether you are hosting a party or simply expecting trick-or-treaters, the last thing you want is for a Halloween visitor to injure themselves on your property.  This is why it’s so important to take precautionary measures around your home.  Here are some of the safety suggestions you should try out.

  • Turn on Outdoor Lights

If you have outdoor lighting fixtures, then make sure that you switch them on when darkness begins to fall.  When your outdoor walkways are well-lit, it reduces the chances of someone tripping, falling, and injuring themselves on the way to your front door.  If you do not have outdoor lights, then now is the perfect time to install some.  When purchasing outdoor lighting fixtures, check the manufacturer’s details to verify which wattage bulbs it will support.  Installing bulbs with too high of a wattage will pose a fire risk to your home.

  • Use Fake Candles

When carving jack-o-lanterns, it’s traditional to illuminate them with candles.   However, lit candles can pose a danger to your Halloween visitors and your home.  Rather than taking this fire risk, it’s advised to use battery-operated LED candles to decorate your home.

  • Clear Your Walkways

If you keep decorative plants and ornaments on the walkways leading to your door, then you should put them away for Halloween.  Removing these obstacles from the ground will lower the chances of someone tripping and injuring themselves on your property.

These are some of the precautions you should take to protect your Halloween visitors.  Want another way to protect your guests?  Then make sure you have the right homeowners insurance in place.  For assistance with all your home coverage needs, contact the experts at Gant Insurance Agency today.
