Wow. That's hard lesson to learn. We all need to remember to be careful when handling or disposing of wood ashes. When we have ocassion to use wood ashes we dig them into the soil. Tht ay if there are the ocassional hot ash, it's been buried and hopefully won't cause harm. Having fire extinguishers in easy accessable places is a really good idea.

Yes, it can be a tough lesson learned, @cecicastor. It won't hurt to spray down the soil with water, whenever adding ash to it. Best to be safe, not sorry. 90% of fires are caused by humans.
