Grills

Careful maintenance of barbeque grills is an overlooked precaution that will prevent unwanted visits by bears and other wildlife.

  • Burn grills clean after each use and keep free of grease.
     

  • Remove all food residues from grills.
     

  • Properly dispose of contents from grease traps after each use.
     

  • Odors from cooking can travel long distances, so never leave grills unattended if you live in bear country.
