I bought a W-6 from Coloado and the tires are filled with Calcium chloride. How do I dispose of this stuff? I feel it does more harm then good. Can you just spill it on the ground? Thanks,
Charles

The only way to really get it all out is to then replace the tubes with new ones or else there will always be a little left over in them still doing harm.

I just always put them in a fence row and then pulled the valve stem and laid them over and come back next day and get them. Didn't kill the weeds for very long as they grew back.

I drained the CC from two 16.9x24 tires onto the grass in front of my shead. Grass turned brown but back to green in about 6 weeks. Yes same stuff the road crews use. good for ice and snow and keepin down dust

Drain it out and save it. It works good on ice and snow where you don't want the stuff, plus it isn't any worse then what the road crews put on the roads any how.

While it may not be right, it is just like salt. No big deal and will disapare after a while in a spot where it will not hurt. Just don't get in on leather shoes or gloves. It will shrink them to nothing. Wash every thing, like rims, off with a lot of water when you are done.
