To avoid fire, investigators recommend checking the serviceability of electrical wiring and household appliances, not using homemade heaters and turning off electrical appliances before leaving the house. It is also important to keep heaters away from furniture and curtains, not leave an open fire unattended and not allow children to play with matches and lighters.
