Tragedies have
occurred when an open flame has suddenly ignited a tent, trapping its
occupants. Never use candles, lanterns or other open flames in tents. This
includes citronella (anti-mosquito) and jar candles as well.Safety from fire far outranks a few bug

check again to make sure any open campfire has been completely extinguished.
