Hello,

Live in New England, outside of Boston.

Boy, what a great season for Moss.
Never had so much.

What's a good way of ridding a grass lawn of Moss without killing any
underneath grass (assuming there's still any alive underneath ?) ?


Lime.


Confirmed. Quick acting hot (quick) followed with the larger grained
after a soil pH test. There is a name for the slow acting but I forget.

Acid is moss's friend spread powered milk about if you like it (Acid).
We have more on just about everything in the last few years. Driveway
, patio, pond concrete and house roof.

I'm almost afraid to stand still )
