I'm sure there will be people that take this seriously lol, PSA to others don't do this. It fucks up the land and nearby water sources as it spreads out. In the US you can be forced to replace the contaminated soil
When I was a yout, they had trucks with a huge tank and a sprayer on the back. The truck would drive all the country roads spraying the dirt with waste oils. This was done to keep the dust down. Smelled terrible. Miles and miles of dirt roads that ran all around by rivers and lakes.
It is crazy to think about that now.
They still do that on sites with dirt tracks that get dusty. Only, they spray with water.
It's pretty shitty and foul smelling water, mind.
Calcium chloride I bet
Magnesium chloride also works well as a dust suppressant. I used to manufacture the stuff
