Many people know the dangers to animals left in cars during sunny weather, but remember the strength of the sun can also easily start fires. Those who were in the Boy Scouts in the days that is what it was called know exactly what I am on about!

Suns rays focused on something flamable, in car, caravan, home, or in the open air will start burning. The focus can be something obvious such as a magnifying make up mirror or reading glass, or even just a glass bottle. So something else to check when leaving your van or car in the sun.

I put this into the "Making . . . cheaper" section as replacing even a fully insured outfit is an expensive nuisance.
