Winter Maintenance
To prevent salt damage to turf around driveways and sidewalks, avoid
plowing or shoveling salt-laden snow onto the grass.
Apply only enough salt to do the job after you remove the snow.
Calcium chloride based de-icing salts don't cause as much damage as
sodium chloride.
Now is also a good time to do preventative maintenance to your tools
and equipment. Check spark plugs, change oil, sharpen blades, etc. |
