During the winter months, your lawn is at its most vulnerable to moss. The winter weather and lack of sunlight creates damp and shady conditions; this weakens your grass, and also happens to be prime moss growing conditions.
If you suspect that you have a moss infestation on your lawn, it is best to act sooner rather than later. Moss can grow and spread very easily, particularly if your grass is weak.
How to kill lawn moss in winter
One of the most common questions we receive is regarding how to kill lawn moss without killing grass. Here at Lawn & Weed Expert, we use a specialised iron sulphate moss killer formula, designed to target lawn moss while leaving your grass healthy.
Some at-home moss killer formulas are prone to burning your lawn and leaving unattractive scarring and discolouring. Our professional team members will apply the specialised iron sulphate lawn moss killer evenly to the affected areas, making sure to avoid burning your grass.
If you have a moss presence on your lawn, Lawn & Weed Expert offer professional winter lawn moss treatment services. To learn more about our services and how they can benefit you, head on over to our website today.
Lawn Moss Treatment
Moss is different from the majority of common garden weeds, and it requires specialised removal. Our specialised lawn moss killer will kill your lawn, but it’s also worth knowing that moss can’t be removed like other lawn weeds. Other lawn weeds are made mostly of water and will shrivel away once dead, but this doesn’t apply to moss. Moss is fibrous and turns to thatch when dead.
Following lawn moss treatment, it’s very possible that your lawn will require raking or scarification, depending on the condition of your lawn.
