Pet Safety in Case of a Fire Damage in Aston

10/16/2019 (Permalink)

Be prepared to help your pet stay safe in the unfortunate event of fire damage.

At SERVPRO of Southern Delaware County we love our pets as much as you love yours. We could not stand to see them injured or killed in a house fire but unfortunately fire damage can harm animals just as it can harm people in Aston.

SERVPRO of Southern Delaware County shares these ideas with you to protect your pet(s):

• When you design your fire escape plan, practice with your pets
• If there are fires outside, bring pets If you have to evacuate, you will be ready to bring the pets with you
• Know where your pets hide. You may not have time to hunt for them in an emergency
• Animal-rescue groups and other organizations have pet stickers that you can put on your windows and doors. The stickers tell firefighters how many pets you have, and what kinds
• Prepare evacuation kits for the pets. These kits can be large plastic bins. Put in copies of their vet records, extra leashes and collars, toys, and food

SERVPRO of Southern Delaware County reminds you to call the fire department once you are safely outside the Aston home.

SERVPRO of Southern Delaware County is independently owned and operated.
