[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You need to get out there as soon as you can and shovel, because the snow will get heavy and it will freeze over during the night.

Skip the salt.  Use sand if you need to lay down something.  In this area, any and all salt will wash into the Potomac and then the Bay, leading to blooms and then dead spots.  [/quote]

Sorry, I use "pet-safe" salt, and I'm pregnant with a sled dog who pulls like crazy. I will put myself first this winter, so I don't lose the baby if the dog makes me fall on the ice that will accumulate if I don't salt my walkway.

Your child’s coparent should be doing it. [/quote]

Well, he's not. So I am protecting myself. Don't assume others have your life and your risks. [/quote]

DP: I get it, but you can still use a safer product that serves the same purpose and protects the world for your child's future. Use what you have and be safe out there. And also know that there are alternatives for next time.[/quote]

They don't serve the same purpose as effectively. It is hard to get consistent and sufficient coverage of sand on sidewalks without slippery spots forming. Salts dissolve and spread out over the surface of the sidewalk, making them much more effective and safer for pedestrians.[/quote]
