We decided to have a new slab poured in front of our church last spring. It's about 12'X30'and connects to about 10' of new sidewalk. The contractor didn't get the job done until August. What can we use for ice melt? I'm sure that we will have ice here in NW Illinois before winter is over and we don't want anyone, especially old people falling down. Most all of the ice melt I have looked at says not to use on cement less than a year old. I did find some at Ace hardware that is made from corn that is supposed to work really well, but it has the same warning on the bag. Is there anything we can use that won't harm the new cement? Seems like I have heard to use pelleted nitrogen to melt ice and if won't kill the grass. Any suggestions?? Thanks, Chris
