By keeping your tree as fresh as possible while it is in the home you can help insure against a fire. Kathryn Kettel, Oregon State University Extension Agent, offers some tips on keeping your cut Christmas tree fresh and safe. -Supply plenty of water. If the tree is to be stored for some time before being moved indoors, stand the tree trunk in a container filled with water. If the tree is to be displayed immediately, set the trunk in a tree stand that is designed to hold water. Don’t forget to saw a quarter to a half-inch portion off the bottom of the tree trunk to allow the tree to take up water. Keep your tree stand filled for as long as the tree remains in the home. Check it daily, especially the first few days after it is cut. -Do not add bleach to your Christmas tree water. In the past, media reports have recommended that a bleach so lu tio n be used. "Unfortunately, this recommendation to use bleach is incorrect and potentially dangerous," said Kettel. "Bleach can quickly kill cut Douglas fir. The dead trees then become fire hazards. Generally, the best way for keeping trees fresh is to re cut the base of the tree and place it in water. Well-watered trees should remain fresh for three or four weeks." -Locate the tree away from heat sources and away from doors in the home. In the event of a fire, the tree could block escape from the room. -Keep the Christmas tree room cool. The cooler the room temperature, the longer the tree will stay fresh in the house. -Turn your tree lights off when not around the tree. -Do not bum candles on or near the tree. -Avoid overloading electrical cords. -Make sure your home smoke detector is working properly and keep a portable fire extinguisher handy just in case.
