Wesley vividly recalls the intense moment when a fire threatened his family's Montana farm in July 2022. Describing the swift action taken by his father-in-law, Wesley narrates, "Suddenly, my father-in-law saw flames in the field behind him. Without hesitation, he dumped the hay from the baler and turned the tractor around to fight the blaze."

Amidst the chaos, the Enforcer 10 played a crucial role in extinguishing the fire. Wesley explains, "He rushed to the front of the tractor, activated the Enforcer 10, and within seconds, the fire on the baler was out." This innovative device, which produces 200 gallons of FIREBULL firefighting foam, proved to be a lifesaving tool on that fateful day.

Reflecting on the aftermath, Wesley expresses gratitude for the Enforcer 10, stating, "When he pulled the trigger, the fire went out and stayed out. Not a single flame reignited on the baler or the ground where the FIREBULL foam had been applied."

The significance of fire safety in agriculture is highlighted by the alarming statistic of 20,000 agricultural fires annually. In response to this pressing issue, a partnership between EnforcerOne and Nationwide aims to provide farmers with essential tools for fire prevention. Nationwide's Brad Liggett emphasizes, "This partnership with EnforcerOne is more than just about business; it’s a commitment to safeguarding the lives and livelihoods of our customers everywhere."

Ron Thames, president of EnforcerOne, underscores the importance of empowering customers with effective firefighting tools, stating, "By getting these easy-to-use firefighting tools directly into the hands of customers to quickly extinguish fires in their incipient stage, we can help better protect customers and get them back to work safely and quickly."

As Wesley's community and volunteer fire departments witnessed the Enforcer 10 in action, they were impressed by its performance. Wesley notes, "Many marveled at its simplicity and power. It’s clear to us now; without the Enforcer 10, we would have lost much more than hay that day."

In conclusion, the message resonates clear - proactive fire safety measures are essential in agriculture. For those looking to safeguard their farms, EnforcerOne offers cutting-edge fire suppression solutions. Visit EnforcerOne.com to explore how these tools can protect what matters most on the farm.
