I wanted to take the time to praise the virtues of your "LS25" liquid de-icer. I've been using it on my driveway (which UPS says is the 2nd toughest in Montgomery county, PA) & front walkway this winter. I have only needed to shovel once. Following your instructions on application, we've had no problems. The backpack sprayer is simple to use & easy to maintain.
Even when we had tough ice a few weeks back. I simply put a top treatment on & (beacuse the base treatment kept the ice from grabbing the driveway) we could go up & down our driveway hill immediately. Without any hard rain, i've even seen treatments countinue working several days.
My wife said you should call this stuff "Solid Gold De-icer" & I agree. My back is eternally gratefull for the countless times it's been spared the agony of a snow shovel this winter

I have tracked our Salt Usage for the past 5 winters in order to compare the effectiveness and
tonnage figures of "straight salt" versus pre-mixed with "Magic Solution". The time frame for
comparison of each winter is November through March 6th, which would allow me to use this year’s
figures. Please refer to the attached figures, which will serve to explain some of the conclusions that
I have drawn from this information.
In order to accurately compare figures from Winter Season to Winter Season, I needed to isolate the
number of "Snow/Ice Events" which required a salting operation. I used two criteria in determining
what constitutes a "Snow/Ice Event". The first criterion used was the incidence of any snow
overtime within a standard 24-hour period. Any snow overtime regarding snow and/or ice would
certainly require salting. The second came from reviewing daily and monthly climate data, which
indicated daily snow, fall totals. Comparing this with the work logs indicated salting operations,
which took place during regular working hours. Based on this information, lets first take a look at
the breakdown of tonnage used per snow/ice event. Read More

At our former location at 186 Cottage Street in Poughkeepsie, NY we adopted a local stray dog that was always wondering through the neighborhood. “Mulch” has been our shop dog forover 9 years and he lives in the garage where we stored our bulk piles of Magic ™ treated rock salt.“Mulch” regularly walks through the piles of Magic Salt™, climbs them, hides toys in it and even lies in the treated salt pi les .
“Mulch” does not suffer from any conditions typically caused by exposure to ice melting agents. He does not suffer from dry or cracking paws as a result of being in regular contact with the rock salt treated with Magic-0™ liquid also known as Magic Salt™. There is also a local veterinarian located next door to our old location and he does use Magic Salt™ on his property to ensure the safety of his patients and their owners in inclement weather conditions to eliminate snow & ice. His name is Dr. Jim Garner of Ark Animal Hospital and he can be reached at (845) 849-3379.
