LA is a melting pot for this.

Here in Pittsburgh, we get a f***ton of ice and snow and I am an expert in shoveling it and melting it with chemicals.

I've got some guests snowed in at the moment but it's melting fast and I expect they'll be able to get out this afternoon without a problem.  

3) Beside the smoke, there is also concerns about chemical, the fire was through the septic pipes, wires, plumbing in the basement were melt in the hot spot, so it’s really costly to remove all the chemical consider? 

We gave them wax melts and the warmers for Christmas.

And these people were never going to cooperate with the paperwork needed for an assistance program, plus after they left we discovered that ALL the outlets were melted, from their having been using space heaters (they didn't pay anything for electric, since it was under dead husband's name, and shutoff moratorium), so we consider it a miracle that they didn't burn the multifamily down.So YES, you can start a small claims against a non-paying tenant, despite the eviction moratorium, and it may help to motivate them to leave sooner.

Heat cable to melt it after bigger storms?

We offered with Tenant A staying as tenant at will, thinking it would take him longer to move all of his things since the snow has to melt.

I had to scramble though, to get a HVAC guy to install a new heat pump, and this property was in Texas in the middle of August, the tenant was melting.

The 7 months of winter, where the snow doesn't melt overnight.
