Winter Ice Melt - Caution!

Look Out! Potassium Chloride, and some of the ice melt products have the potential to damage your front step, if it has a cement top. I put some Potassium Chloride on my step, and literally two days later thought better of it and swept it off. The result? Well, see for yourself, it ain't pretty. So, take it from me - use a good old fashioned snow shovel, and use an ice melt that is safe on cement steps, or you'll have an expensive repair job come spring. Look up 'Safe Salt' or 'Step Salt' or 'Step Ice Melt' or similar, and make sure it doesn't damage cement steps BEFORE you use it!
