Tips for Property Owners
Be a good land steward—reduce fire risk, nurture healthy habitats, and maintain space forwildlife to roam.
Maintain defensible space around your home’s perimeter, ensuring nothing combustible is within five feet of your house. Then, manage vegetation farther from your home.
Create a resilient landscape around your home with plants that are fire-wise, drought-tolerant, and biodiverse.
Improve roadways without damaging waterways with strategies like rolling dips, fixing slopes, and increasing drainage.
Protect your livestock and support the coexistence of livestock and mountain lions with wildlife-safe fencing and puma-safe livestock pens.
Install shielded lights that funnel light downward, ensuring the night sky stays dark for migrating birds. And, turn off lights that aren’t needed.
