Wow i see the same thing here in Aus its nice living in the bush but when are people going too learn no trees within 50mtrs of homes sprinklers around and on the home and clean up leaf litter if you can't do this as a home owner i don't see why someone else has to save YOUR house when you couldn't do the basics to keep it safe imo
