Disclosure: I am a cofounder of a startup in Northern California focused on wildfire risk inspections and making recommendations to homeowners about what they can do to reduce their risk. I'm on the science side with a focus on the impacts of risk mitigation. Dealing with outside storage and debris are part of both the Safer From Wildfire standard and the Wildfire Prepared Home standard. Addressing ember accumulation areas (read: any where leaves/ dust/ crap piles up) adjacent to a structure or any where else on a property is one of the easiest things a home owner can do to reduce their overall risk. Its cleaning up your yard and moving things that might catch on fire away from your house. If you have a problem with that and live in even a mild wildfire risk area, good luck maintaining coverage. This is the absolute lowest hanging fruit with regards to reducing wildfire risk.
