Spyker™ HHS100 Handheld Spreader 5 lb Capacity is perfect for de-icing sidewalks, stairs, driveways and other paved areas that could become slip hazards in winter weather. Its rotary broadcast design allows the user to spread ice melt more evenly compared to spreading by hand or shaking from a jug, saving material and money. Adjust the flow rate by simply rotating the knob on the back of the unit, pull the trigger and go! Keep corrosive ice melting chemicals off your hands in winter, then rinse and use for overseeding and fertilizing in the spring and fall.
