SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (KELO.com) — Three house fires and multiple dumpster fires were reported in Sioux Falls last summer due to the improper disposal of fireworks.
Sioux Falls Fire Rescue says when the fun is over, make sure to let your fireworks soak completely submerged in water for at least five hours.
Double wrap the soaked fireworks in plastic before you throw them in your garbage can.
Sioux Falls Fire Rescue also reminds that fireworks with an audible report, projectile, or launching component are not allowed within Sioux Falls city limits.
