If you are in a position to legally discharge fireworks, please be mindful of the following things in order to be a considerate neighbor:

•      The time of day and neighbors who may have small children.

•      Pets who may be terrified by a long, sustained fireworks display.

•      Wind and weather conditions blowing your aerial rockets into neighbors yards.

If you discharge a firework and cause a fire, YOU can be held criminally liable (responsible) for the damage and any injury caused.
