Fireworks have been around for centuries, but with all that history comes a lot of myths and misconceptions. From safety concerns to strange beliefs, let’s separate fact from fiction and bust some of the biggest myths about fireworks.

❌ Myth 1: Fireworks Are Always Dangerous

Truth: Fireworks can be dangerous if used incorrectly, but when handled responsibly, they are safe. Following safety guidelines like using mortar racks, keeping water nearby, and lighting one firework at a time keeps risk low.

❌ Myth 2: Bigger Fireworks Are Always Better

Truth: Not necessarily. Smaller fireworks like fountains, sparklers, and cakes can create just as much fun as large mortars—especially for family-friendly events.

❌ Myth 3: Sparklers Are Safe for Kids

Truth: Sparklers burn at temperatures of over 1,800°F—hot enough to melt some metals! Kids can enjoy them, but they should always be supervised closely by adults.

❌ Myth 4: All Fireworks Are the Same Everywhere

Truth: Firework laws and products vary by state and even city. What’s legal in one place might not be in another. Always check your local regulations before buying.

❌ Myth 5: Fireworks Harm the Environment Beyond Repair

Truth: While fireworks do have some environmental impact, advances in eco-friendly fireworks and biodegradable materials are making them safer and more sustainable than ever.
