Tree farms and greenhouses have been busy helping families find the perfect live tree.

And they're also giving them tips to properly care for them to avoid fires.

Workers at walton's greenhouse in columbus say live trees require some special attention.

And they say it's important to use caution with lights and other ornaments prevent fires.

"keep it away from a heating element whether it be a fire place, a heater, or a wall unit.

Don't put a plug into it and then make sure you use good lights.

The cording in it if it's frayed or tore or broken can cause it to spark; and then you keep your tree hydrated with water in the christmas tree base.

If you do that it should be fine."

Tuggle also advises setting your live tree up on a rubber rug so it wont' flip.
