Creosote is a flammable tar-like substance that forms when wood burns incompletely and deposits on the inside of your chimney flue.

The three most effective steps: (1) Annual professional chimney cleaning to remove creosote, (2) Burn only seasoned hardwood — oak, pecan, or mesquite are ideal for San Antonio, (3) Install a quality stainless steel chimney cap with spark arrestor. Never burn cardboard, treated wood, or trash.
