What is the best method of eradicating a severe infestation of moss in a
lawn?

West Berkshire.


(1) Apply moss killer with your spring and autumn feeds.
(2) Cure the conditions which are encouraging moss - usually too much shade
and dampness and too little drainage.

My lawn in West Berkshire was an uphill struggle - regular treatment reduced
the moss but the area shaded by the north fence grew moss much better than
it grew grass.
