Safe, controlled prescribed fires to reduce wildfire risk, improve wildlife habitat, and enhance the health of your land. Professional burning by experienced, certified burn managers.
Prescribed burning, also known as controlled burning, is the carefully planned and controlled application of fire to specific land areas under precise weather and fuel conditions. Unlike wildfires, prescribed burns are intentional, managed fires that achieve specific land management objectives.
At CALS RX Fire, our certified burn managers plan every fire down to the smallest detail—weather conditions, humidity, wind speed, fuel loads, and smoke dispersal—all to ensure safe, effective results that benefit your land.

We offer various prescribed burning techniques tailored to your land's specific needs and management goals.
Targeted burns to reduce thick vegetation in forest understories. Perfect for pine stands, hardwood forests, and areas with dense brush encroachment.
Controlled burns to prepare and enhance wildlife food plots. Promotes fresh forage growth that's irresistible to deer, turkey, and other game species.
Burns for pastures, prairies, and native grassland areas. Essential for maintaining healthy grass stands and preventing woody plant invasion.
Specialized burns in wetland and riparian areas. Controls invasive vegetation while promoting native wetland plant communities.
Controlled burning is one of the most cost-effective and environmentally responsible land management tools available to landowners.
Remove dangerous fuel loads that could feed catastrophic wildfires. A well-burned property is a protected property.
Create ideal habitat for quail, turkey, deer, and other game species. Fire promotes the forbs and insects that wildlife need to thrive.
Reduce competition from hardwoods and brush in pine stands. Fire promotes timber growth and reduces disease pressure.
Many invasive plants can't tolerate fire. Regular prescribed burns help keep hardwood brush and woody invasives in check.
Prescribed fire is far more affordable than mechanical clearing or chemical treatments—and it works with nature, not against it.
Fire releases nutrients locked in vegetation back into the soil, promoting new growth and improving overall ecosystem health.
Combine prescribed burning with our other services for comprehensive land management that delivers lasting results.
