County officials are warning people to pick up their trash after setting off fireworks.

The county commissioners say every year manpower is taken away for days from working on county roads and services to pick up trash left behind by people setting off fireworks.

County residents also say people come out every year and leave trash and fire rockets at their livestock.

This year Lubbock Sheriff's Deputies will be stepping up patrols to respond to any fireworks misuse.
