Lime pellets will help with fleas and ticks in a lawn. The lime must be marked for "agricultural" or "hydrated" use, otherwise not enough moisture will be absorbed from the soil.

Does lime kill grass?

Only if it needs lime. Have someone take a soil test for you to check the pH level. If it reads between 6.5 and 6.7 your fine. If the test reads low...its too acidic and then and only then do you apply lime which may green up the lawn. If the numbers are too high then it needs to be more acidic with possibly a sulfur application. As a hot product I recommend only a professional apply sulfur or a high sulfur fertilzer...if improperly applied to your lawn, it will burn and then your grass wont be green for a while. The practice of throwing down lime every year is an old farmers tale. You could be taking your lawn in the wrong direction.
