Many don't recognize the hazard. A friend had bought a nice older building for a transportation business, set up a shop area for maintenance of the vans, good mechanic, but the oily rags were not put in a safe place. I did a lot of work on the building and mentioned this, safety can was in place immediately. Not a good thing to lose your fleet to a fire. At home, I don't use the cloth rags so much as shop towels or what have you. At the end of each job when working on a tractor or such, they are tossed in whatever container is handy, then put in the burn barrel and immediately burned.

When doing either, all other things will be ignored until I am done and know there is no concern about disposal or any fire hazard, distractions are dangerous too.
