The Rural Fire Service says residents with respiratory problems in Captain Creek and Miriam Vale should keep their doors and windows shut, with hazard reduction burns this weekend.

Back-burning will be carried out along Fingerboard, Tablelands and Round Hill Road to reduce vegetation that has grown over the wet season.

Meanwhile, controlled burns will also be carried out on Fraser Island.

The Parks and Wildlife Service says residents can expect to see smoke around Eurong, Dilli Village and Lake Boomanjin.
