How do I get rid of moss?

Home › Tips and Advice › Expert Answers

Question

How do I get rid of moss?

Answer

If the moss is in a shaded area under an oak or maple it may be a futile effort to rid it. Most moss like dark moist space to grow in and it likes it acidic, so lime applied to the area will  change the balance, may work for a period of time.
