2111222 9222351 PCTABS00018 The fire deterrent system operates in a preemptive manner by detecting the impending approach of a wildfire within the vicinity of the structure (R) to be protected. The system includes apparatus (1, 2, 10) to identify the locus and direction of spread of a fire while it is outside of a predetermined area (100) that encircles the structure (R) and extends outward therefrom. The estimated time of arrival of the fire at the predetermined area (100) is determined and the structure (R) and surrounding vegetation (13, 22) sprayed a predetermined time in advance of the determined arrival of the fire. Pre-wetting the structure (R) and surrounding vegetation (13, 22) reduces the probability of local fires caused by windborne embers and reduces the combustibility of these materials to assist conventional fire fighting efforts.
