Don\u2019t waitConsidering the health hazards of harmful chemicals used in de-icers, using a snowblower or shovel is one of the safest methods of cleaning snow. If you\u2019re considering clearing your pavement manually, don\u2019t wait for the snow to stop. On the days when it is snowing heavily, shovel periodically so that it does not pile up and turn icy later.2. The wrong way of cleaning snowWhether you are clearing snow from the roof or sidewalks, make sure you\u2019re not creating a pile of snow near the foundation of your house. It may freeze the pipes and cause leakages and bursting in some cases.3. Ice melt product to useEveryone knows the rock salt\u2019s harmful impact on driveway pavements, the environment, and health. Homeowners are looking for alternative best ice melt solutions to use during snowstorms.So, if you have children and pets, you need to be careful while choosing the correct ice melt. Choose an ice melt that is salt-free, chlorine-free, acetate-free, and that is not only pet-friendly but non-corrosive also.Traditional ice melt products contain large amounts of salt that lead to permanent damage to your pet\u2019s paws and gastrointestinal problems if ingested. Therefore, use an ice melt safe for pets and concrete.4. Getting rid of light and fluffy snowThinking of putting your leaf blower away for the season? You can make your blower double duty. It can be quite handy to get rid of the light and fluffy snow on the staircases, driveway, car, etc.5. Pre-treating the surface with ice meltDon\u2019t wait until the storm hits. Pre-treating surfaces with ice melt can prevent the snow from sticking to the surface. After the fall, whether you\u2019re cleaning the snow manually or using ice-melt, it takes lesser effort and time if you have pre-treated surfaces.6. Using cooking spray instead of ice meltHave you noticed that when you shovel, snow tends to stick on the shovel? Well, in that case, use cooking spray. Using cooking spray on the shovel can help you move through the snow easily as it prevents the snow from sticking on the shovel..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=&#8221;2339&#8243; \/].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.
