Are fire starter kits worth it?

You may think that you’re a total pro and have zero use for a fire starter, but they’re more beneficial than you think! Since you never know the conditions you may find yourself in, it’s totally worth it to have a kit as a “just in case” to make starting a fire a breeze.

Are survival fire starters better than natural materials?

A natural material like wood and pine cones are great for getting a fire started – until they get wet, that is. There’s no better or worse option; fire starters just come in handy when situations are less than ideal.

Can I light a match after it’s gotten wet?

You usually can’t light a wet match because the chemicals have been dissolved, as they can’t ignite or sustain themselves. Waterproof matches can be used again after they’ve been dried out.

What are easy ways to start a fire?

You could use natural materials or a fire starter kit. Examples include creating friction with rocks or wood, flint and steel, matches, and lighters.

What’s the most common survival fire starter?

Though there are plenty of fire starters out there, nothing beats the most common one of all – classic matches or a lighter paired with kindling.
