Have you got any fire hazard and fire control advice?

Make plans to be somewhere (anywhere) other than Mallorca?

Give your house a defensible space. If it catches fire, or there is fire near it, the firefighters always make a quick judgement call as to whether the house can be saved. Make it look like you tried to give them a chance to save it.

Take anything of value and put it in storage (well, it might be too late for that) or at least in your car for a quick get away.

Have your garden hose ready and don’t hesitate to use it if you see any sparks or embers. Be very vigilant.

Don’t get drunk.

Folks who have a forest fire barrelling their way will hose down the roof and exterior grounds near the building ahead of time. If you have anything flammable outside hose it down.

Hmm. At first I thought you were asking for fire safety devices, not advice. We have smoke detectors and heat detectors that call the fire station if they detect these things. So I suppose you could install a system like that. That would be my advice.

In addition, I’d keep the hose attached to the spigot so I could easily spray water on areas that catch fire.
