For homeowners, getting rid of the ice requires the use of eith- er salt or urea. While salt is fast -acting and most commonly used by local government agencies, homeowners should use it very carefully and only when necessary because it is very toxic to plants and grasses, states Burke McNeill, horticult- ural specialist for the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and Food. Salt should be spread caut- iously so that it cannot come in contact with lawns.
