Pet-Safe Snow and Ice Melt for Front Steps
When winter brings ice and snow to your front steps, choosing a safe and effective ice melt is essential—especially if you have pets. Redmond’s Ice Slicer: Nature’s Blend offers a natural solution designed to protect your family, pets, and plants while keeping your walkways clear and safe.
Why Choose Ice Slicer: Nature’s Blend?
All-Natural and Certified Organic
Unlike many conventional ice melts that contain harsh liquid chlorides, dyes, and additives, Nature’s Blend is made from pure, unprocessed ancient sea salt. It is certified organic by the Organic Materials Review Institute (OMRI), ensuring it contains no harmful chemicals or artificial dyes. This makes it a safer choice for children and pets who might come into contact with or accidentally ingest small amounts.
Safer for Kids, Pets, and Plants
Nature’s Blend is formulated to be gentler on soft tissues such as skin and paws. While any salt can cause dryness if left on skin or fur for extended periods, a simple rinse after exposure easily removes residue. Its natural mineral composition includes over 60 trace minerals that act as buffers, reducing the harsh effects typical of traditional rock salt. This mineral balance also supports plant health, making it less damaging to your landscaping and garden.
Fast and Efficient Ice Melting
This ice melt works 3.5 times faster than traditional rock salt, effectively melting ice and snow down to 0°F. Its high performance means you can use less product to achieve the same results, reducing environmental impact and minimizing residue on your steps.
Enhances Traction and Easy to Apply
The natural reddish color and coarse grit of Nature’s Blend not only make it easy to see where you’ve applied it but also improve traction on slippery surfaces. This helps prevent slips and falls on your front steps, providing added safety for your family and pets.
Available Sizes for Every Need
25 lb Bag
Ideal for larger areas like driveways and walkways, this bulk size offers great value for keeping your entire property safe throughout the winter.
10 lb Pouch
Perfect for smaller spaces such as front steps or porch areas, this convenient size allows for easy storage and precise application.
Both sizes deliver the same trusted benefits of being all-natural, pet-safe, and highly effective.
How to Use Nature’s Blend Safely and Effectively
1.
Apply Before Snowfall: Lightly spread Nature’s Blend before a storm to prevent ice from bonding to your steps and pavement, making snow removal easier.
2.
Reapply as Needed: During or after shoveling, sprinkle a light amount every few steps to maintain traction and prevent refreezing.
3.
Avoid Over-Application: Using more product does not speed up melting and can increase wear on concrete and plants. If you notice leftover granules after melting, reduce the amount next time.
4.
Rinse Paws and Feet: After outdoor exposure, rinse your pets’ paws and your own feet to remove any salt residue and prevent dryness.
Environmentally Friendly Winter Care
Nature’s Blend supports a healthier environment by avoiding harmful additives found in many ice melts. Its runoff nourishes soil with beneficial minerals rather than damaging plants or wildlife. This makes it an excellent choice for homeowners who want to protect their gardens and local ecosystems while maintaining safe, ice-free steps.
“Nature’s Blend is a natural mineral salt that melts ice quickly without the harsh chemicals found in other products. It’s safer for pets and plants, and its mineral content actually benefits soil health.”
