The brush fire near I-95 in Brevard County is now completely contained after flaring up Saturday morning.

Earlier on Saturday, crews said the fire was completely contained, but they also warned that conditions were ripe for flare-ups and that homeowners should take precautions.

"Right now our primary concern is to get behind people's houses, behind their properties, put them at ease, put out hot spots that might become a problem later on," said Brevard County Fire Chief Mark Schollmeyer.

The fire burned more than 150 acres in the southern part of Brevard County on Friday. Homes near Grant Road and Babcock Street were threatened

Firefighters worked overnight to protect homes in the area.

Flames re-ignited, roaring back to life, just 10 feet from Chuck Ylijoki's home.

At one point flames shot up six feet with Brevard County firefighters ready to extinguish it.

For now, they're letting the fire burn itself out to reduce fuel and reduce the chance of another flare-up.

"I understand what the concept is to get it to burn out so, get rid of the fuel," said Ylijoki. "But what about some of those embers falling onto your home? Yeah that concerns me. I'd be asleep if it didn't."

Firefighters have been monitoring the blaze, which is now being called the “Terkam” Brush Fire.

Chester Bombriant is also concerned with flare-ups on his business, the Hog Wild Paint Club.

Friday, he watched in horror when the the Terkham fire started and raced toward his business, destroying 10 structures along the way.

"The trees exploded because the ground was burning, and you had a lot of brush, the palmettos, and then the pine trees will explode, and that's what gets your carry over and then it just, it just kept going all around the field," said Bombriant. "Your thoughts as it started getting closer to your business? I was in a panic."

Crews on Saturday continued to douse flare ups.

Smoke caused some visibility issues on Grant Road and Babcock Street, but they were reopened overnight.

Conditions on Saturday could be ripe for more flare-ups, so firefighters suggest homeowners take precautions.

“You should probably clear a good 30 feet around your home," Brevard County Fire Rescue Chief Mark Schollmeyer said. "Take care of some of that lawn stuff, and make a nice defensible space around your home in the event of a wildfire like this."

Officials have not said what caused the fire, but they said it was not due to a prescribed burn.

The fire was originally reported off I-95, near Babcock Street Friday afternoon.
