Light jack-o-lanterns with battery powered lights – NEVER use candles! Instruct children to stay away from open flames. Remove objects from the yard that present a hazard to trick-or-treaters, such as garden tools and hoses. Be extremely careful with cornstalks and other flammable harvest season decorations. Keep them away from sources of heat. Don’t let them block doorways or stairs. If you are driving on Halloween, watch out for trick-or-treaters who will be too busy to watch out for you. Closely inspect all candy before allowing children to eat it. Discard any unwrapped treats from a stranger. “If In Doubt, Throw it out!”
