Reminder: Purdue University researchers Andrew Whelton, Todd Thalhamer and Eric Bollens have published “After a Fire: Considerations of Personal Safety When Visiting Fire-Damaged Property.”
The guide addresses hazards residents may encounter when entering or working around wildfire-damaged properties and reinforces the importance of not relying on sight or smell alone when evaluating environmental safety.
