Product Information

Just spray the diluted solution onto the moss, take the appropriate safety precautions and leave it there. The ground is safe for children and pets once the liquid has dried. Pros The most common way to get rid of moss is to apply a moss killer and then rake it out after waiting for a couple of weeks.

Use this product on your lawn when moss is actively growing. For best results, don’t use a hand-held spreader. A broadcast spreader is a much better choice for even application. Before applying, mow the lawn, so the grass is short enough to allow the granules to get down to the ground where moss grows. Note that one bag covers 5,000 square feet.

With that in mind, we put together this manual to help you apply moss killers in a safe and easy way. If the objective is killing moss only in certain areas of your lawn, then you can choose either liquid or granular moss killer. Although you can apply chemical products like Iron Sulphate multiple times a year, you should always wait a few weeks between applications. Not doing so can alter the pH of your soil and make it more acidic. Moss Off doesn’t have this problem. Liquid moss killers are usually diluted with water and applied to the lawn using a sprayer or watering can. For granules, most brands suggest using a broadcast spreader to make sure you get an even application over the entire lawn.

The one-gallon container of 30 Seconds can cover an area between 750 and 2250 square feet. And since the formula doesn’t have phosphates or bleach and is pH neutral, you won’t have to worry about leftover stains or marks. On the downside, the moss killer is not safe to use near plants in the garden. Even the grass in the lawn tends to lose its color if the spray reaches it.

Brush a top-dressing mix into the holes, comprisingthree parts sandy loam, six parts sharp sand and one part peat-free multi-purpose compost,to improve drainage –see our lawn carevideo(aeration and top-dressing start at3:53 mins) Moss can be removed by rakingor using a powered scarifier, or by applying a non-chemical, bacteria-based moss remover. Apart from the obvious answer that having moss on your walls can be detrimental to their structure, a moss killer gets rid of moss, mold, and algae in an efficient way. For example, when you see moss in your lawn or garden, your first impulse is to rake it. But that doesn’t eliminate the stubborn fungus. On the contrary. When you rake it, you’re actually spreading it to other parts of your property. One strand or filament of moss has enough spores to start a whole colony of fungi.After setting the criteria for selecting the top moss killer products, it became clear that Wet & Forget Roof and Siding Cleaner for Easy Removal of Mold is the top choice and deserves our editor’s award. It has a high spray pressure that covers a 30-foot radius. This allows you to spray the roof and inaccessible places with ease. The patented formula works fast on the moss and kills it within 24 hours after application. The liquid moss killer comes ready to use out of the box and works both indoors and outdoors. Fresh moss has many uses too – flower arrangers like to use in displays, while birds add it to their nests. It can be used to line hanging baskets and looks great as a mulch in containers of spring bulbs. You can also add it to wildlife habitats and bug hotels. Non-chemical, bacteria-based products The downside of using a salt solution is that it can be harmful to your lawn. It’s important to use caution when applying a salt solution and to make sure that you don’t apply too much. In some cases it is not possible for us to specify in advance the periods for which your personal data will be retained. In such cases, we will determine the period of retention based on the following criteria: Moss Off is great for using on paths and driveways too as it won’t stain them or turn them orange like an iron based product would.

Lilly Miller Moss Out takes convenience to a new level by allowing you to attach the container to your garden hose. This not only gives you wider coverage but also takes the hassle out of finding the right hose or fiddling with the sprayer. If you’re looking for a more environmentally-friendly way to get rid of moss, consider using a salt solution. A salt solution is made by dissolving salt in water. When applied to the lawn, it will kill the moss and any other plants that are growing on your lawn. Before applying the chemical, rake the moss thoroughly. You can use a powered lawn rake to save yourself a lot of trouble and blisters. The reason we don’t skip the moss killer step and just rake it out is because this can spread untreated moss to other areas of your lawn. Raking Untreated Moss Can Spread it to Other Areas of Your Lawn The recommended maximum dilution ratio is one part concentrate to six parts water. If you have a heavy manifestation of moss, try using only four parts of water for a stronger solution. Wait for a day in which no rain is expected for six hours and then apply the solution. You can choose to use a watering can to do this but some online reviewers state that you don’t get the widest application of the liquid this way. Instead, using a low-pressure garden sprayer is the most economical application method.We may process any data identified within this policy where necessary for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims, whether in court proceedings or in an administrative or out-of-court procedure.
