very common , my dog came back covered in so many .. we have a tic remover make sure you get the head too , otherwise it can regrow in them and give them lime disease!

Actually, this is not true. Without a body a tick cannot keep on 'sucking' the blood or inject poison into the host's body. When you see a tick try to remove it ASAP, before side affects kick in. The removal of the tick may leave its head but that's alright because, as I said before, the tick is un-functional. If you do happen to leave the head behind accidently then there will just be a small scab which forms and the head will eventually come out by itself.
The density of hydrated lime typically ranges from 550-640 kg/m³.
Its great for breaking down clay int soil RB
Hydrated Lime: Solubility in Water: Slightly soluble in water. pH=12.4@25°C

Hydrated lime and slaked lime are both forms of calcium hydroxide, but they differ in how they are produced. Hydrated lime is made by adding water to quicklime, while slaked lime is made by adding water to lime putty. In terms of properties, hydrated lime is a dry powder that is more stable and easier to handle, while slaked lime is a wet paste that is less stable and can harden over time. Hydrated lime is commonly used in construction, agriculture, and water treatment, while slaked lime is often used in traditional building materials and as a chemical reagent. Overall, hydrated lime is more versatile and widely used compared to slaked lime due to its easier handling and broader range of applications.
The chemical name for hydrated lime is Calcium hydroxide The chemical formula is Ca(OH)2.

The density of hydrated lime is listed as 2.211 gm/cm3 .Doesn't matter whether you have a thimbleful or a truckload of it.
No it is not. Hydrated lime and concrete are quite different. hydrated lime is an addative similar to cement and used in concrete to improve the strength. it can also be added to soil to improve stability etc. typically concrete is a mixture containing different % of rock, cement/lime, fly ash, water. lime is a cheaper then cement however not aas effective and takes longer to harden. -civil engineering student
To check the pH of hydrated lime, you can use a pH meter or pH test strips. Mix a small amount of hydrated lime with distilled water to create a slurry, then insert the pH meter probe or dip the test strip into the slurry to measure the pH level. The ideal pH range for hydrated lime should be around 12-13.
If a horse swallowed hydrated lime, you should call a equine vet immediately as this is an emergency situation. Hydrated lime is highly caustic and toxic to both animals and humans, ingestion of the substance could be fatal if not seen to immediately.
No, hydrated lime is not a gas. It is a solid white powder composed of calcium hydroxide, which is produced by adding water to quicklime (calcium oxide). When hydrated lime is mixed with water, it forms a solution that is commonly used in various industrial and chemical processes.
