How to deal with the micro-fire?
For sudden, relatively minor fires, simple and easy ways to deal with emergencies should be mastered:
1. Water is the most commonly used fire extinguishing agent, wood, paper, cotton cloth and other fires, can be directly extinguished with water.
2. Quickly cover the fire with soil, sand, soaked quilts or blankets, etc., which can effectively extinguish the fire.
3. Fighting with a broom, mop, etc., can also extinguish small fires.
4. Oil, alcohol, etc. fire, can not be used with water to extinguish, can be quickly covered with sand or soaked quilt.
5. If the gas catches fire, you can cover the fire point with a wet towel and quickly cut off the gas source.
6. Electrical appliances can not be extinguished by water in the event of a fire, nor can they be covered with wet items. Water is a conductor, and electric shock occurs in doing so,

The correct way is to first cut off the power and then extinguish the fire.
If possible, you can also learn how to use some simple fire extinguishers.

Clever use of the "fire extinguisher" around you
In daily life, almost each of us is dealing with fire, once a fire occurs, especially in the initial stage of the fire, if it is found in time, the disposal method is appropriate, and the fire can be extinguished quickly with small manpower and simple fire extinguishing equipment. However, after people find a fire, they often only think of using a fire extinguisher to extinguish the fire, but they do not know that there are many "fire extinguishing agents" around them that can be used.

Damped cloth. If the family kitchen catches fire and the initial fire is not large, you can use a wet towel, wet apron, wet rag, etc., to directly cover the flame and "suffocate" the fire.

Pot. When the cooking oil in the pot catches fire due to excessive temperature, do not panic, let alone pour water on it, otherwise the burning oil will splash out and ignite other combustibles in the kitchen. At this time, the air source should be turned off first, and then quickly covered with the lid to extinguish the fire. If there is no lid, other things at hand, such as pots, can cover the pot, and even pouring the cut vegetables into the pot can also extinguish the fire.

Cup lid. Alcohol hot pot suddenly burns when adding alcohol, and will burn the container containing alcohol, at this time can not panic, must not throw the container out, should immediately cover or cover the mouth of the container, so that it suffocates and extinguishes the fire. If you throw it out, wherever the alcohol flows and splashes, the fire will burn. Do not blow with your mouth when extinguishing the fire, you can use a teacup or small bowl to cover the alcohol plate.

Salt. The main component of table salt is sodium chloride, which will quickly decompose into sodium hydroxide under high temperature fire source, and inhibit free radicals in the combustion link through chemical action. Granular salt or fine salt used in households is a fire extinguishing agent to extinguish kitchen fires and solid smoldering fires, table salt absorbs heat quickly at high temperature, can destroy the shape of the flame, dilute the oxygen concentration in the combustion area, so it can make the fire quickly extinguished.

Sand. In the event of an initial fire outdoors and there is no fire extinguisher, in the case of a greater risk of extinguishing fire with water, you can use a shovel to pinch sand and cover the fire to suffocate and extinguish.

If a fire is found, call the police first or put out the fire first?
When you find a fire and you are the only one at the scene, you can't run away at the sight, regardless of the situation. As the saying goes, "When the crisis is not chaotic, the disaster situation is halved". Because the initial fire is easy to extinguish, if it can be extinguished in time, the fire will not expand. Calls for help should be made while striking. However, it is necessary to first assess your ability to put out the initial fire. If you have the ability, then use the corresponding fire extinguishing method to extinguish the fire. If you think you are unable to extinguish the fire, you should immediately go to the police. On the alarm road, you can shout and run while to get help from the masses and get the attention of the neighbors.

After a fire, find a clear and clear-headed person to call the police, and people with fire protection knowledge can organize neighbors to try to extinguish the fire or rescue it. Of course, be sure to pay attention to safety and wait for the arrival of firefighters.
