On grease fires, use baking soda instead, or Firestop powder material. They stop fires. You can smother grease fires also by using a steel or aluminum flat pan or surface over the fire. But never ever use water on grease fires ever! It will cause a massive flash fire explosion. It can even burn down your whole house if the fire is not limited to your whole kitchen!
