Christmas trees are pleasing to the eye and warm the soul, however, these trees decorated with colorful lights can quickly catch fire, causing a lot of trouble.

The authorities of Long Island conducted a demonstration of how the tree could cause a fire in the whole house in less than a minute, and also told how to prevent this, writes CBS NewYork.

First of all, do not light the candles and leave them unattended or place them close to other decorations, especially easily combustible.

Do not forget that life-threatening can be not only fire, but also smoke from a fire.

A Christmas tree is often watered and moistened, it will look better and will be less fire-hazardous. In addition, it is not necessary to place candles and other burning or sparkling decorations next to the tree.
