Smudge stick safety
- Keep the smoke load to a minimum.
- Keep away from alarms.
- Keep moving while smudging at a steady pace.
- Best not to stand in one place for a while as the smoke rises and accumulates and could set the alarm off.
-
Make sure your smudge stick is completely extinguished. You can do this by dabbing the lit end into a small bowl of ash or sand.
Check the end closely to make sure there are no more embers burning. Once it’s completely put out, store it in a safe, dry place out of the sun.
