I agree with ME!
Fire is a natural part of the ecosystem. If we don’t keep it going through the areas the fires we do have will get worse.
If more landowners would utilize controlled burns, these wild fires wouldn’t be near as bad. There is no reason for the majority of the woods around here to be as thick as they are. Contact a forester and get on a burn schedule.
