Not affected me, but i know what you mean, we were working in Mijas last year when there was a bad one.
It was really scary wondering when it was going to stop spreading.
The planes and heli`s were flying over and water bombing it, the noise was scary.
I always remember the pratt on the radio saying " oh there must be a bonfire somewhere, the planes are picking up water " almost making a joke out of it little did he know how bad it really was.
Like you say keep all the dead stuff clear ;) ;)
