Fires are often the result of negligence or irresponsible behavior.  According to the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) smoking is among the most common causes of house fire.  Negligent smoking habits lead to the majority of these fires.  People sometimes discard hot ashes into a trash can.  The paper products in the can ignite, creating a small fire.  The fire spreads to other flammable products in the bathroom, creating a larger fire.  While the fire itself maybe contained to the bathroom.  The smoke can travel through the entire house, creating a large and expensive cleaning and restoration project.
