    The problem of finding the maximum size of a minimal edge cover of a grid graph \(G\) is considered. It is not difficult to show that this size is equal to \(|V(G)|-\gamma(G)\), where \(\gamma(G)\) is the domination number of \(G\). The problem is then settled as \textit{D. Gonçalves} et al. [SIAM J. Discrete Math. 25, No. 3, 1443--1453 (2011; Zbl 1237.05150)] completed the work on determining \(\gamma(G)\) for grid graphs. Tilings by polyominoes play a central role in the paper, where also some other graphs than grid graphs are discussed.
