Moss Killer

Hi

Can anyone recommend a good moss killer - noticing quiet a bit of growth in the shady bits round the brickwork of my house as well as flagstones in my garden.

Thanks

Whether it will kill moss i don't know but something i've just used on the weeds between my flags was salt. I bought the cheapest in Tesco, about 50p kilo, split it into 3 lots and mixed it in the watering can, first with a kettle of boiling water to get it to desolve then topped up with cold. Proper Mse and it seems to have worked

Just found this ....

Diluted bleach in a watering can, probably best doing it in evening when its slightly cooler. I do this on outside perimeter walls when its some shade and also block paving. I just get a large 2 litre bleach from tesco, usually there own or Dettol

You could use a pressue washer. I also hear soda crystals kill moss and Jeyes fluid

Another vote for diluted bleach. I buy the cheapest I can find, water it down in a bucket and 'paint' it on with a broom. Within a day or two my walls are back to cream again.

Soda crystals. Scatter them on the mossy areas and leave to suck up the moisture. Then just sweep the area a couple of days later.
You'll have to wait for it to stop raining first though....
PS. I would only use these measures in areas where it won't run off to plants that might suffer!
