October is Fire Prevention Month and the Fargo Fire Department reminds residents to install smoke alarms in every bedroom, outside each separate sleeping area and on each level of the home, including the basement, and to test smoke alarms at least once a month by pushing the test button. All smoke alarms should be replaced when they are 10 years old or stop responding when tested.
