Gravel/Soil/Mulch Estimator

Home / Ask The Gardener / In the winter I use salt to de-ice my sidewalk and then in the spring the grass along the sides of my sidewalk is dead. Is there anything else I can do?

In the winter I use salt to de-ice my sidewalk and then in the spring the grass along the sides of my sidewalk is dead. Is there anything else I can do?

Instead of using salt try using sand after you shovel your walk. Use ‘concrete sand’ this is used in soils to provide aeration and will provide traction to your sidewalk while being less damaging to the lawn.
