And, remember to be safe during the holidays. Claims tied to fires at homes increase 15 percent during the holiday season, according to Allstate. Here are some tips to help prevent any holiday mishaps:
- If you have a tree, water it regularly to keep it from drying out.
- Stay away from lights that are broken.
- Use lights that have been tested and deemed safe.
- Inspect light strands for frayed wires or cracked sockets.
- Never overload electrical outlets.
- When you leave your house or go to bed, turn off your holiday lights.
