Is there any truth to the rumor that used motor oil can be used to fertilize your lawn??
Question:
Answers:
NOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!
BAD for the lawn,Animals, Humans.
It is actually a cancer causing agent.
I will read the back of a moter oil label:
Warning; Repeated contact with used Motor Oil HAS caused skin cancer in laboratory animals. Wash skin thoroughly with soap and water after contact.
It will kill your lawn and it's bad for the environment if it isn't disposed of properly.
No, it will kill the grass. I know from the leak under my car. The gravel driveway HAD some grass growing through.
Please do not do that...even the service stations have a special pick up for used motor oil..it is environmentally terrible to put onto the soil.
Glad that you asked first!....thanks
Absolutely not. It will kill things, and make the soil unsuitable for any sort of agriculture. Used oil should always be recycled; it can be used as boiler fuel.
No, it is not true and it is illegal. Should someone see you trying this and turn you in, you will be fined and pay for the contaminated dirt to be removed. Not a cheap task.
