| Abstract: |
Fire is a powerful part of Florida\'s landscape. It can maintain healthy natural ecosystems, but can also turn a home to ashes. Florida\'s frequent lightning strikes and human carelessness guarantee that wildfire will continue to be a factor in rural and subaurban areas. With the steady rise of new homes in undeveloped areas, some homeowners may wonder if they are in danger of wildfire. Find out if you are at risk, and follow these guidelines to reduce the threat of wildfire. |
