Every single year without fail, fireworks tend to cause various issues.

Our pets become very scared and anxious since they sense these sudden loud noises, flashing lights and strong smell of explosives.
Each year many beloved pets sadly pass away from the fright of these noises. RSPCA says that they have received 1,621 calls about fireworks and their effects on animals over the past few years noting that 62 per cent of dogs, 54 per cent of cats and 55 per cent of horses show signs of distress during the pyrotechnic displays.

Some people especially veterans suffer from PTSD and have to relive the same traumatic experiences every year due to the fireworks.

Wildlife become very disorientated during these times resulting in them not being able to locate their homes and abandoning their nests. Birds panic when hearing loud noises and can accidentally fly into things. Horses start fleeing when they’re scared, escaping through fences onto roads or sometimes injuring themselves on farm equipment

Not only should fireworks be made silent but they should also be banned from being sold in stores as they can easily come under the wrong hands such as irresponsible youths who start firing them towards people/buildings. Accidents can also happen with faulty products or people who don’t know how to properly set them off.

Let’s all be considerate of others ❤️
