does salt really kill grass? if so what type should i use.?

Answer 1

Ammonia will kill the grass, too, and will act as a fertilizer later if that suits your purpose. Gas kills for a long time and eventually evaporates. Salt stays in the soil a very long time and can be washed to the surrounding areas.

Depends on the salts used inside the tank. I fear just leaching it won't work, you'll have to dig out the dirt and replace it. But I'd start with a serious leaching and then removing the dead and plopping sod over the top once the soil is dug and fluffed again as it is surely compacted. If the new spot dies, then the salt was the type that binds to the soil and cannot be removed......easily. It may be easier to dig out the spot to at least 12 inches down, if not more, new soil and new sod. In a way the binding salt would be better as it doesn't wash into nearby soils. Make sure you talk to the guy or call his company and ask if this is policy or was just an accident.

Answer 4

Salt ,in high enough concentrations, will kill any plant it is spread on. I presume that you are asking about what to use on sidewalks for ice removal? In June? If you have grass kill due to salt from winter use, you will have to remove the dirt as well because the salt is still present in the soil and will not allow any grass to regrow there. Halite, salt substitute, will also get rid of ice but not kill the grass.

Answer 5

First you are making a lot of presumptions. Did you actually see this happen? If you did did you confront the operator? If you did did you follow up with the company? If the above are all yes then wait until you actually see the grass die then get the company to replace it. If you didn't then make sure every thing is well watered down and replant the dead area (if it occurs). There may not be enough salt to actually affect your lawn. If you decide to insult people who answer your questions you may find you wont get questions answered.
