Firewise’ planning, landscape design, and maintenance is important in areas where fires frequently occur. Homes built on the wildland / urban interface are particularly susceptible to the destructive effects of wild fire.
Proper design includes creating several landscape zones to create a defensible space around buildings and other structures.
