Working

A fire blanket is designed to smother a fire by cutting off its oxygen supply. With no oxygen to feed it, the flames will die. Fire blankets were once used to smother fire on humans, but not so much any more.

A fire blanket is now more appropriate for smothering equipment fires, such as computers. A fire extinguisher would completely trash a computer if used. A fire blanket might salvage some computer parts.
A fire blanket is also a good emergency tool to have in the kitchen for smothering grease fires or any other cooking-related fire that might break out in the kitchen.

When using a fire blanket, it is important to protect your hands; fold the blanket first around the hands before applying it to the heat and the fire.
