Armchair Critic,
<<I've come up with a solution: Fireproof houses.>> That's a suggestion and not a solution. Posted by OzSpen, Tuesday, 19 November 2019 6:30:07 PM

OzSpen,
"Are those types of questions out of your league Is Mise?" Most of them, thankfully. Individual, Fireproof houses is a splendid solution. http://www.baldwinobryan.com/bush-fire-resistant-houses.html The house that we live in is about 160 years old and is tinder dry and would go off like a bomb if fire got to it. It is built of box slabs, fortunately the designer/builder built it without gutters and the eaves are sealed. Rain water falls straight down into stone drains (cemented around the 1920s) and flows into underground tanks (cisterns); the water is unfit for drinking but is kept for fire control.
