Winters in Oregon are never dull as we have something for everyone. We have a wide range of activities from adrenaline-filled cross-country skiing to rejuvenating soaking in a natural hot water spring. With all the excitement of winter comes the challenging part of removing snow from our facility. Hence, we need to gear up with our snow removal solutions to fight the winter woes.Most of the ice melts available in the market use chemical compound with a chlorine component like sodium chloride, calcium chloride, magnesium chloride, potassium chloride, etc. These chemicals can corrode the concrete and weaken the rooftops. They can also be harmful to kids, pets, and vegetation. They are capable of causing rashes, irritation, and dryness to paws and skin, as well as inflammation and stomach pain when mistakenly ingested. Salt tends to accumulate in nearby run-offs and streams. Therefore, it is advisable to go eco-friendly and opt for environmentally friendly ice melt solutions..wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading_4e9e76-fd, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading_4e9e76-fd[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading_4e9e76-fd\"]{text-align:left;font-style:normal;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading_4e9e76-fd mark.kt-highlight, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading_4e9e76-fd[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading_4e9e76-fd\"] mark.kt-highlight{font-style:normal;color:#f76a0c;background:#eeeeee;-webkit-box-decoration-break:clone;box-decoration-break:clone;padding-top:0px;padding-right:0px;padding-bottom:0px;padding-left:0px;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading_4e9e76-fd img.kb-inline-image, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading_4e9e76-fd[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading_4e9e76-fd\"] img.kb-inline-image{width:150px;vertical-align:baseline;}@media all and (max-width: 1024px){.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading_4e9e76-fd, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading_4e9e76-fd[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading_4e9e76-fd\"]{text-align:center!important;}}@media all and (max-width: 767px){.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading_4e9e76-fd, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading_4e9e76-fd[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading_4e9e76-fd\"]{text-align:center!important;}}Pet Safe Ice MeltSafe PawThe Original and the #1 Pet and Child Safe Ice Melt for over 20 years.

It is an open secret that only a few enjoy this job as it’s strenuous and time-consuming and can be indisputably a pain in the back.2 – Urea Urea is a fertilizer made from carbon dioxide and ammonia. It does not have chlorides. The nitrogen present in it is healthy for grass but not for the waterways \u2013where it ends up once the snow melts. It is another example of eco-friendly ice melt but it begins to lose effectiveness when temperatures drop below 25 degrees Fahrenheit, making it a less suitable option for rather cold days.3 – Ash It helps de-ice and melt snow in moderate conditions and also provides traction. However, the heavy metals present in the ash can be damaging to lawns and gardens..wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading_a31899-39, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading_a31899-39[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading_a31899-39\"]{text-align:center;font-style:normal;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading_a31899-39 mark.kt-highlight, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading_a31899-39[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading_a31899-39\"] mark.kt-highlight{font-style:normal;color:#f76a0c;-webkit-box-decoration-break:clone;box-decoration-break:clone;padding-top:0px;padding-right:0px;padding-bottom:0px;padding-left:0px;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading_a31899-39 img.kb-inline-image, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading_a31899-39[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading_a31899-39\"] img.kb-inline-image{width:150px;vertical-align:baseline;}Weather Forecast[wpc-weather id=”2659″ \/]4 – Environmentally friendly ice meltThere are ice melts that are free from chemicals and toxins. They are non-corrosive and do not cause any harm to flora and fauna. They offer a lot of convenience without causing any damage to your property and family. By picking up the best ice melt solution this winter, we will successfully save time and money by avoiding replacement and treatment job.5 – Sugar beet juiceBeet juice is mixed with salt and then used as ice melt. Due to its sticky nature, it minimizes the amount of salt that runs off into waterways but at the same time, it can leave behind a light brown or red stain. Moreover, it contains sugar, which washes off into the water bodies. The sugar attracts germs, and those germs take away some of the oxygen used by aquatic life.So, this snow season, let\u2019s apply the eco-friendly snow melting idea and enjoy the snow without worrying about the repair bill and environmental damages..wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading_61ffa5-b3, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading_61ffa5-b3[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading_61ffa5-b3\"]{text-align:center;font-style:normal;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading_61ffa5-b3 mark.kt-highlight, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading_61ffa5-b3[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading_61ffa5-b3\"] mark.kt-highlight{font-style:normal;color:#f76a0c;-webkit-box-decoration-break:clone;box-decoration-break:clone;padding-top:0px;padding-right:0px;padding-bottom:0px;padding-left:0px;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading_61ffa5-b3 img.kb-inline-image, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading_61ffa5-b3[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading_61ffa5-b3\"] img.kb-inline-image{width:150px;vertical-align:baseline;}Other ProductsTraction MagicStay safe on slippery surfaces with a product that\u2019s 100% natural and safe for pets, people, and your property.
