All the above are a danger to wild life & the environment.

I thought Chinese lanterns had been banned too.

Re: Opinions
Fireworks of today are like mini explosions and often pet owners hate them for the pets distress...that is just one reason..My experience in Spain with the Fiesta's... the one in our village went on day and night, the best part of a week..you would get sometimes a few hours when it was a lot quieter..just then suddenly 7.00am ish here comes a brass band with a trumpeter in front blowing his lungs out and fireworks going off left right and centre...Windows closed wooden blinds down..no escape from any of it....Fireworks just huge huge bangs,,ok the colours are amazing, but at what costs...I go with the Tiffany on this...
