There are many types of moss, and they all enjoy growing in damp, shady, north-facing areas. They grow in your lawn, driveway cracks, wooden porch steps, between bricks of a walkway, and shingles of your home. Moss has attractive qualities in specialty gardens if you deliberately grow it yourself, but it looks unattractive in other spaces and sometimes causes damage to structures if left too long. Fortunately, our moss control information shows you the easiest ways to remove these spongy plants using simple remedies.
Moss travels by spores on the breeze and settles in areas with poor drainage and little sun. Discover how to perform moss control in the lawn by removing it by hand or with a rake and balancing the soil pH with iron sulfate. Explore ways to make a do-it-yourself spray with white vinegar, baking soda, or bleach to kill moss roots on any surface and use a pressure washer to get rid of moss between bricks. Learn ways to prevent moss from growing around your yard and home by taking care of leaks and performing outdoor clean-up.
