My elder son was absolutely terrified of fireworks for many years (although I'm happy to say he's grown out of it now). However, it's very antisocial to be creating loud noise after small children have gone to bed plus, as you say it affects many animals. There should be tighter restrictions for the buying of fireworks & when they can be used but, unfortunately, they seem to be being relaxed.I know fireworks have gunpowder in them, but I've often wondered if they can be made without the 'bang'?
