If you are evacuated, here are tips that could put your mind at ease.

"Homeowners who need extra money while they're evacuated from their homes can get immediate living expenses under their homeowners insurance policies,"said Carole Walker, Executive Director of the Rocky Mountain Insurance Information Association.

Before Wildfire

Remove excess trees, dead trees and shrubs, and highly flammable shrubs. (Removing large trees near your house can be very dangerous for both you and your house, and is therefore a job for a skilled contractor.) Rather than plant shrubs near your house, consider landscaping alternatives such as creating a rock garden. Remove leaves and pine needles from roofs, gutters and downspouts. Prune low tree branches and mow-dried grass. Remove combustible items from around the house, such as woodpiles, patio furniture, barbecue grills, etc.
