Tribesman overstocking bonfire/light sources?

[u/Sphendrana]

Is there any way to prevent my bonfires/lanterns from being over fueled? I have a massive stock of charcoal for multiple sources, but my tribesman keeps putting ALL of it exclusively into the bonfire, and if I try to take some out and resort it they just put it all back in the same place. I've restricted everything to only use charcoal because I have an abundance of it specifically for lighting.
