Keep kids protected with these seven guidelines

Saint Peters, MO -- (SBWire) -- 10/10/2019 --SAINT PETERS, MO—There is no stopping the change of seasons in St. Louis. Summer has faded and local residents are preparing for the fall weather. In fact, in the upcoming weeks, homeowners and their children will once again participate in the fall's greatest (and sweetest) tradition— trick-or-treat night.

As a family-owned business that is always available for furnace maintenance in West County, MO, and beyond, Jerry Kelly Heating & Air would like to take this opportunity to remind customers and neighbors that safety is of the utmost importance during this holiday event. Here are seven tips recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics to keep kids protected on trick-or-treat night.

1. Put the phone down while walking. Be aware of surroundings.
2. Choose fire-resistant costumes and be sure costumes don't cause tripping hazards.
3. Choose bright, reflective costumes and carry glow sticks for visibility.
4. Check all candy prior to eating.
5. Know the routes of older children. Give them a curfew and have them travel in groups.
6. Don't wear masks that obstruct vision.
7. Only visit homes in well-lit areas.

Of course, Halloween and trick-or-treating aren't the only reminders that fall has arrived. When the temperatures start to dip, homeowners should use that as their chilly reminder to call Jerry Kelly for their annual furnace maintenance in St. Charles County, MO, and the surrounding areas.
