New podcast episode: Get Fired Up About Wildfire Prep
Posted on May 13, 2026
Scenes of whole towns burned to the ground in areas like Maui and Malibu have been high-profile news stories in recent years. But what if your house could survive a wildfire? It’s not magic – it’s the home ignition zone!
Post-fire investigations and research have popularized attainable changes and recommendations that you can make to your home, yard and property that decrease the risk of total home loss in the event of a wildfire. And luckily for residents, the Wildfire Mitigation staff at Missoula County offer free home risk assessments to help them make a plan to safeguard their properties.
Missoula County Wildfire Mitigation Specialist Olivia Anderson joined the commissioners this week to answer their burning questions about wildfire preparedness.
