Moss accumulates moisture and slowly but surely destroys the foundation of a house or extension.

There is no point in scraping the plant, because in the near future everything will be as it was before cleaning.

Moss grows on stone and bricks without problems, even getting into cracks. After mechanical removal, a green carpet will appear in a month.

Household chemicals will cope with the plant much better than a scraper or other similar equipment.

How to get rid of moss

To work you will need bleach, which is used during washing.

For 10 liters of water, take 1.5-2 liters of bleach. Mix thoroughly, and then water the problem areas.

The solution will soak the moss to the roots. The plant will be seriously injured, which will stop its development. In a few days, the moss will turn yellow and dry out. After that, all that remains is to take a scraper or a broom and clean up.

Baking soda (2-3 tbsp. per 1 l of water) and vinegar with water (equal proportions) help fight moss. The principle of application is the same as in the case of bleach. Sunny weather will play into your hands if the problem area is under the scorching rays.
