When severe frosts arrive, an experienced gardener knows the importance of checking the paths.

They can be severely damaged by temperature changes, which leads to the formation of ice.

If you don't remove ice accumulations, depressions and icy, lumpy areas, you'll have to do major repairs in the spring.

Let's look into this issue in a little more detail.

How to solve the ice problem

This check is especially important for concrete paths, which can become severely deformed if laid incorrectly.

The problem can be solved with sand or ash, as well as special reagents. If the path is already in a state of emergency, then it is better to start repairs in the spring.

Note that if there is too much snow on the site, it can be thrown into the vegetable garden or flower bed, as the snow acts as a natural cover.
