A fire extinguisher is your first line of defense when it comes to putting out the flames of a small blaze. Of course you are always going to want to contact the fire department immediately, however this can help you contain the outbreak in the meantime. Be sure, however, that you know how to use the fire extinguisher properly, and that you are not putting yourself in any danger by using it. It may be in your best interest to get out as soon as possible, and run to safety. Definitely make sure that your family is kept safe and away from harm. After all, they are truly precious and must be protected no matter what. The same goes for yourself.
