Ensure a safe and joyous celebration for your family and neighborhood by following these essential fireworks safety precautions.

DO's — Safe Practices

Always purchase genuine, branded Sivakasi green crackers from authorized factory dealers.
Store fireworks in a cool, dry place away from heat sources and electrical equipment.
Always ignite crackers outdoors in an open ground away from buildings, vehicles, and dry grass.
Keep a bucket of clean water and sand nearby for emergency fire extinguishing.
Use an agarbatti (incense stick) or sparkler with a long handle to ignite aerial fireworks from an arm's distance.
Wear cotton clothes and secure loose hair while bursting crackers.
Supervise children at all times while they are lighting sparklers or flower pots.

Never attempt to relight or inspect a dud firework that did not ignite properly. Wait 15 minutes and pour water over it.
Never ignite crackers inside closed rooms, staircases, or balconies.
Do not wear loose, flowing, or synthetic silk/nylon clothes while handling fireworks.
Never hold burning fireworks in your hand or throw them towards people or animals.
Never carry crackers in your pockets or close to body heat.
Do not use glass bottles or metal tins to place rockets before ignition. Always use a stable launcher pipe.
Never leave used sparkler wires or burnt shells on pathways where children might step on them.
