Keeping your sidewalks clear of snow and ice is important. It keeps lawyers from your door. But it may keep more than that away!
SALT. Please buy pet-safe salt for the sidewalks in front of your business. Failing to buy a pet-safe brand can impact local consumers who walk their dogs past your front door.
Most deicers contain a type of salt, such as sodium chloride, magnesium chloride, potassium chloride, or calcium chloride. Some may contain other types of chemicals, too.
Pet-safe deicers are salt free and therefore will not burn or damage paws.
This morning, I purposefully avoided walking past a few local businesses that use the wrong salt. They have lost my business.
That's avoidable!
