I hate to throw out that much salt and really I'm not sure where to put it. We're on a septic system, so if I dump it there I'll be adding salt to our leach field which is not something I want to do. Anyone ever have any luck say, in letting the salt dry out in the sun?

(2,673 posts)I used to pour mine out in my alley where the weeds and poison ivy grew. Then I got one of those ice cream freezers where you freeze the tub and don't have to use ice. so much easier.

(7,720 posts)I haven't used that sort of ice cream freezer in a while, but in our case, we have some rocks bordering iur house that has no vegatation so that is where I would dump it. If I had a driveway without a slope (ours is sloped) I'd dump it there and sweep up the salt after it dried. If here was a gravel road nearby, I'd dump it there. Frankly, our house borders a 3,000 acre county park. The part adjacent to our home is mostly weeds (some flowering prairie grasses) so I would walk a few feet into the weeds and dump it.
