Winter has already arrived and there is a lot of snow on the streets at the moment, but the weather can change abruptly, which will lead to the formation of ice.
Falling on slippery paths is painful, unpleasant and quite dangerous, especially for an elderly summer resident.
For this reason, after ice has formed, it is a good idea to do everything possible to remove the slip effect.
Let's look into this issue in a little more detail.
How to get rid of ice on your walkways
Here are some ways.
- Salt. Salt melts ice very well, but it is important to understand that it will not go anywhere in the spring – it can harm the plants.
- Special reagents. Can be purchased in special stores. They work even at low temperatures.
- Sand. It just creates a surface that makes you less slippery.
- Boiling water. Only effective against thin ice - otherwise it can only make things worse.
- Ash. Works in the same way as sand. Hot ash can partially melt ice.
