Coming in only second to weeds, moss is arguably the most difficult thing to clear from lawns. Take a quick look at your lawn. If you see any coarse green or yellowing tufts in between the grass, you\u2019ve got moss. Left unattended, moss will spread spores everywhere and overtake your entire lawn.<\/p>\n

Soon enough, it will be competing with your grass for space and nutrients. More often than not, moss tends to grow on poorly fed compacted soil or over-thatched lawns with poor drainage. And once it gains root, simply raking or scarifying your lawn won\u2019t work \u2013 all it does is spread the moss to other good parts of your garden. What you need is the best moss killer for lawns.<\/p>\n

Key Features and Considerations When Buying Moss Killer<\/h2>\n

i. Lawn Size<\/h3>\n

The size of your lawn should determine the moss killer you buy. If you have a large lawn, it goes without saying that you need a large capacity moss killer. Similarly, the ratio of water to moss killer will affect how quick and effective it is. People with larger lawns will be well suited by a lawnspreader. But if it\u2019s small, then go for moss killers that can be spread by hand or sprayer.<\/p>\n

ii. Grass Food<\/h3>\n

Killing moss is only half the job, the other\u2019s growing a denser, stronger lawn. If you really want the best moss killer, then get one that also helps your lawn grow healthy grass as well. The best moss killers tend to have residual benefits and light nutrient content.<\/p>\n

iii. Safety<\/h3>\n

Ideally you want a chemical free moss killer that is safe to use around children and pets. However, make sure it\u2019s also non-stain so it won\u2019t stain your paving, deck, and patios.<\/p>\n
