On the report of the National Fire Prevention Association, fireworks caused 11,000 injuries and 4 deaths in 2016. Apart from personal injury, the NFPA mentions that fireworks start an average of 18,500 fires each year. 1,300 of those are structural fires and 300 are vehicle fires. It’s a cinch to conceptualize how that takes place: if you’ve never undergone a moment of sheer terror seeing a firework mistakenly zoom under a parked car, you’re one of the lucky ones. For the most part, the NFPA reckon that fireworks cause $43 million in property damage each year.
Because you are a property owner, you should be bothered about your Livermore tenants lighting fireworks on or near your rental homes. Although it’s easy to understand why they would want to, the figures alone are a reasonable cause to discuss things with your tenants about not utilizing fireworks at the rental property. One approach in order to sway them in favor of heeding your appeal would be to offer them information on firework safety and the risks involved.
If that doesn’t look like it’s working, you need a property management company who understands the risks of fireworks and can help your tenants understand the danger involved.
