Default Re: Excessive Salt

If I understand correctly and it is table salt that someone put on your yard, I think water leaching would be effective. Maybe you can even dig a small hole near the affected spot and let water slowly spray on the affected area and accumulate in the hole--that water could then be removed and should contain a fair amount of the salt. Table salt (sodium chloride) is highly soluble and does not bind to soil very strongly.
