Removing moss from path

We have the same problem, and no amount of power washing will shift it.

I dont know about on tarmac so if you fancied giving it a go on a small area first you could try the cheap bleach that you get in Tesco (approx 29p for 2 litres - THIN BLEACH) and spray it on, leave it for 24 hours and try to do it when you know it is not going to rain. I do it about every 6-8 weeks on our block paving and it works a treat. I use a back pack sprayer, I tried it with a watering can but it goes on too thickly and costs a fortune in bleach.

Do you rinse it off with a pressure washer or a hose or just leave it?

Moss is a living plant (Or what ever) and bleach will kill it. Give it a few days to die and then wash it off.

We have an existing thread on removal of moss, so I'll merge this to give you more ideas
