5 ways to extinguish fires and 10 ways to avoid danger in your life

1. Use the “fire extinguisher” around you

In our daily life, almost everyone of us is dealing with fire. In the event of a fire, people often only want to use a fire extinguisher to extinguish the fire, but they do not know that there are many available “fire extinguishing agents” around them.

Wet cloth:

If the home kitchen catches fire and the fire is not large at first, you can use a wet towel, wet apron, wet rag, etc. to cover the flame directly to “suffocate” the fire.

Pot lid:

When the cooking oil in the pan catches fire due to the high temperature, do not panic, and do not pour with water, otherwise the burning oil will splash out and ignite other combustibles in the kitchen. At this time, the gas source should be turned off first, and then the lid of the pot should be quickly covered to stop the fire. If there is no pot lid, other things on hand, such as basins, can be used as long as they can cover, and even the cut vegetables can be put into the pot to extinguish the fire.

Cup lid:

Alcohol hot pot suddenly burns when it is added with alcohol, and will burn the container containing alcohol. At this time, don’t panic, do not throw the container out, you should immediately cover or cover the container mouth to suffocate the fire. If thrown out, where the alcohol flows and splashes, the fire will burn. Do not blow with your mouth when extinguishing fire. Cover the alcohol plate with a tea cup or small bowl.

salt:

The main component of common salt is sodium chloride, which will quickly decompose into sodium hydroxide under high temperature fire sources, and through chemical action, it suppresses free radicals in the combustion process. Granular or fine salt used by households is a fire extinguishing agent for extinguishing kitchen fires. Table salt absorbs heat quickly at high temperatures, can destroy the shape of the flames, and dilute the oxygen concentration in the combustion zone, so it can quickly extinguish the fire.

Sandy soil:

When an initial fire occurs outdoors without a fire extinguisher, in the case of water fire extinguishing, it can be covered with sand and shovel to suffocate the fire.

2. Encounter the fire and teach you 10 ways to avoid danger.

There are two main aspects of casualties caused by fire: one is asphyxiation by thick smoke and poisonous gas; the other is burns caused by flames and strong heat radiation. As long as you can avoid or reduce these two hazards, you can protect yourself and reduce injuries. Therefore, if you master more tips for self-rescue on the fire field, you may be able to get a second life in trouble.

①. Fire self-rescue, always pay attention to the escape route

Everyone should have an understanding of the structure and escape route of the building where they work, study or live, and they must be familiar with the fire protection facilities and self-rescue methods in the building. In this way, when the fire occurs, there will be no way out. When you are in an unfamiliar environment, be sure to pay attention to evacuation routes, safety exits, and the orientation of the stairs, so that you can escape the scene as soon as possible when it is critical.

②. Put out small fires and benefit others

When a fire occurs, if the fire is not large and it does not pose a great threat to people, you should make full use of the surrounding fire-fighting equipment, such as fire extinguishers, fire hydrants and other facilities to control and extinguish small fires. Don’t panic and panic in panic, or leave others alone and “go away”, or set aside small fires to cause a catastrophe.

③. Suddenly evacuate in case of fire

Facing the thick smoke and fire suddenly, we must keep calm, quickly judge the dangerous place and safe place, decide the escape method, and evacuate the dangerous place as soon as possible. Do not blindly follow the flow of people and crowd each other. Only with calmness can we come up with a good solution.

④. Get out of danger as soon as possible, cherish life and love money

In the field of fire, life is more expensive than money. In danger, escape is the most important thing, you must race against time, remember not to be greedy for money.

⑤. Quickly evacuated, I walked forward and did not stand

When evacuating the scene of the fire, when the smoke billows, your eyes are unclear, and you can’t breathe, don’t stand and walk, you should quickly climb on the ground or squat to find the way to escape.

⑥. Make good use of the aisle, never enter the elevator

In the event of a fire, in addition to the safety exits such as stairs, you can use the balcony, window sill, skylight, etc. of the building to climb to a safe place around the building, or slide down the stairs along the protruding structures in the building structure such as downspouts and lightning lines.

⑦. Fireworks are under siege

When the escape route is cut off and no one is rescued within a short period of time, measures can be taken to find or create a place of refuge and stand by for help. First close the windows and doors facing the fire, open the windows and doors with fire, block the door gap with a wet towel or a damp cloth, or cover the windows and doors with water soaked in cotton, and then do not stop the water from leaking into the room to prevent the invasion of fireworks.

⑧. Jumping from a building with skill, trying to keep your life safe

During the fire, many people chose to jump off the building to escape. Jumping should also teach skills. When jumping, you should try to jump to the middle of the life-saving air cushion or choose a direction such as a pool, soft awning, grass, etc. If possible, try to hold some soft items such as quilts, sofa cushions, etc. or open a large umbrella to jump Down to reduce the impact.

⑨. Fire and body, rolling on the ground

When your clothes catch fire on the fire, you should quickly try to take off your clothes or roll on the spot and press the fire extinguishing seedlings; it is more effective to jump into the water in time or let people water and spray fire extinguishing agents.

⑩. In danger, save yourself and save others

Anyone who finds a fire should call “119″ as soon as possible to call for help and report the fire to the fire brigade in time.
