Ultimate Guide To Buying An Ice Melt
There are a variety of ice melt products available in the market for different needs. Some come in the form of a liquid formula, while others come in pellets or granules. Some are developed for use around pets and children, while others are made for specific surfaces or climates. Investing in ice melt is a long term commitment. Therefore we have come up with a comprehensive guide to help you choose the best one.
1. Research Online For The Product
Go through the product website and research different ice melt brands. Read online reviews, read testimonials, and watch videos. You’ll find that most of the reviews are in favor of natural salt free ice melt.
Safe Paw is one such product that is salt-free, natural ice melt and is better for the environment and animals. This ice melt is also safe to use on asphalt driveways and pathways.
Unlike most ice melters, Safe Paw is safe for pets and concrete, brick, and other hard surfaces. There is no salt in it, not even rock salt.
2. Check The Composition Of The Ice Melt Jar
This is the first thing you must do- checking the composition of your ice melt before purchasing it. With this, you will find out whether the ice melt contains any disastrous salts or not.

4. Choose Wisely
First and foremost, not every product on the market is safe for you and your concrete since some manufacturers offer snowmelt that contains chemicals or salts that are potentially harmful to kids, pets, plants, and concrete.
Gaia Enterprises Inc. delivers 100% pet-safe and environmentally friendly winter products. Safe Paw, our flagship product, is the #1 selling pet-safe ice melt that does not harm pets, safe if ingested, and safe on all types of concrete.
Such compounds are hazardous for your and your family’s well-being. They can damage the surface and possibly produce fissures, especially if the concrete is brand new. Selecting a product that is safe for all and suitable for concrete is critical. It is also worth noting that these products hurt not just the surface but also the environment.
