Safety First
100% preventable Fires.   Take away mother nature which none of us want to mess with and 99.99% of everything else (as it relates to fire services) is preventable.
Buy and maintain your smoke alarms.  Although by the time these go off the prevention is past tense….but it will still get your butt out and keep you alive
Buy and maintain a fire extinguisher.   This is a difficult one because again…..once the fire has started the prevention is past tense….but you might be able to keep a small fire from getting large.   BUT…you also have the weigh the risk of knowing when it is time to just get out and leave it to the professionals.
Buy and maintain  CO alarms.  Not fire related but definitely will save your butt from death!
Use LED candles
Quit smoking or at least properly dispose of the Butts.
NEVER leave your kitchen cooking unattended.   NEVER.  Grills too!
Clean your dryer vents (and the big vent behind your dryer too)
Keep combustibles away from furnace and heater
Throw away old extension cords
Properly secure flammables in your garage.
