Keep It Green KIG8 Snow & Ice Melter - 8 Pound Jug

 (4 customer reviews)

I tried this stuff out twice earlier this year, once during a nasty ice storm that left 1/2" of ice on the ground and also during a snowstorm (2" fell). Performed with intended results both times. The granules don't seem to have hurt my lawn or damage the slate pathway up to the house. Furthermore, there were no adverse effects to my dog, who is prone to licking his paws. I've gone ahead and reordered. Would recommend!

I wanted a more environmentally and pet-friendly de-icer for my steps and walkway. I have been so pleased with the results, I just ordered the 40 lb bucket. After shoveling snow, I scattered this on my steps, porch, and concrete walkway- they stayed clear even after more snow. We then had freezing rain that coated the sidewalks and streets, but my steps and walkway stayed clear, even without reapplying the product (granted, I probably used more than I should have the first time around... I was worried it wouldn't work well, so I scattered a lot). The 8 lb jug is really just enough to try out the product. It would only be enough for winter in places that don't get snow/ice very often.

- Ordered two of the 40lb containers last couple winters
- Very pleased, the ice melter melts ice and seems to disappear after a short time unlike heavy rock salt I've used in the past.
- Small container serves as a spreader as well, making it a little easier than lugging out a 40lb bucket and scooping.
- Overall pleased with this purchase, but will likely have to order a 40lb bucket before winter really gets going.
