Four trucks responded to a grassfire on Baranduda Drive yesterday afternoon, believed to have been sparked by a lawnmower.
CFA operations officer Brett Myers said that the incident served as a timely reminder to be "extra vigilant when using machinery and equipment in the open, even on a 23-degree day".
The fire burnt an area of approximately three acres of grassland.
