Mercury Insurance and Wildfire Expert Douglas Kent Discuss the Basics of Landscaping in Fire Country
"
Residents can take proactive measures to help protect their homes, starting with cultivating a fire-resistant landscape that can endure firebrands for days, intense heat for weeks, and resist ignition, helping Californians protect their neighborhoods, homes and families.
Landscape infrastructure, including driveways, pathways and big landscape features, influence how people interact with the land. In order to best protect a structure, creating a landscape with ease of access to and from the structure can allow residents to easily evacuate the property and firefighters to easily reach the structure.
The plants a landscape boasts can influence the way a wildfire interacts with a home – by either leading it directly to the structure, or by stopping it in its tracks. Installing fire resistant and fire retardant plants, as well as maintaining them, is one of the best proactive measures homeowners can take to protect their properties.
