Model 225-7918 Fuel Moisture Sticks are used to estimate moisture content of small forest fuels for prescribed burning operations and to determine forest fire danger ratings. The sticks are placed over a duff bed of coniferous needles or hardwood leaves in the area where moisture is to be measured. The exposed sticks are then weighed on the Model 225‑7917 Fuel Moisture Scale and the weight in excess of the oven-dry weight represents fuel moisture. Sticks should be replaced every 90 days.
