Know gasoline safety rules

Posted: 3/31/2016

Most burns from gasoline happen because it is used the wrong way. Parkland’s Regional Burn Center has some advice on how to handle gasoline safely.

DO:

  • Use gasoline outdoors only.
  • Keep gasoline outside the home where kids cannot get to it.
  • Keep it in a tightly closed metal or plastic container that is labeled for gasoline. 
  • Start charcoal grills only with fluid that says “charcoal starter fluid.”
  • Fill equipment that uses gas, like lawn mowers and leaf blowers, only when the engine is cool.
  • DON’T:

  • Try to draw gasoline out with your mouth.
  • Use gasoline inside the home or to clean.
  • Use glass or plastic bottles (milk jugs) for moving or storing gasoline.
  • Use gasoline to burn trash.  
  • Smoke when handling gasoline. 
  • Start a fire or make a fire larger with gasoline.
  • Try to put out a fire that starts with gasoline. Leave the area and call for help right away.
  • Learn more about Parkland’s Regional Burn Center.
