3 Household Items That Can Destroy Your Home if Left Unchecked

​Baby-proofing your house or remembering to pull out the electrical plug on your microwave are simple ways to eliminate safety threats, but those are the obvious ones. No matter how much you spend on home safety, there will always be items around the house that could potentially cause severe damage if left unchecked. If you want a safe home, you must always keep an eye on these four deceptively harming devices.
Gas Range
Gas ranges are entirely safe and efficient appliances when adequately cleaned and vented. However, the stove can lead to severe damage around the house if you fail to maintain it. A damaged gas range can release carbon monoxide, which is lethal to homeowners and pets. Also, gas stoves are prone to broken gas lines, which can fill your house with gas. A simple spark can obliterate your home and everyone in it within seconds if you fail to keep an eye out for gas leaks.

Loose Electrical Wires
Electrical wires are already a tripping hazard but can do a lot more damage inside a home. Damaged electrical cables can cause a lot of dangerous accidents from electrocuting a person to igniting a house fire. Electrical cords also possess threats like exploding when misused and electrocution when placed on a wet surface. If you find a loose electrical wire at home, you need to secure it with electrical tape or avoid using it until you can purchase a replacement.

Christmas Trees
Despite only taking it up during the latter part of the year, Christmas trees can pose a severe safety hazard depending on its location inside the house. If you place your tree near fireplaces, radiators, and other sources of heat, it can easily catch fire. Also, faulty electric lights can cause sparks that can ignite a dry Christmas tree. To avoid burning your house down, you need to have a safe and ideal location in mind when you set up your Christmas tree.

There will always be accidents inside the house despite knowing that you followed the basic and obvious safety guidelines. The best way for you to feel safe is by remaining aware of threats. However, you should also purchase home insurance to cut your losses when an accident occurs in your house.
