Spring ahead and change alarm batteries

This weekend marks the start of Daylight Saving time.

Missouri State Fire Marshal Tim Bean says it is a good time to change the batteries in your smoke alarms and carbon monoxide alarms.

Fire Marshal Bean also recommends you test your alarms to make sure they are in working order.

According to Bean you should replace smoke alarms every 10 years because they lose their effectiveness over time.
