Things You'll Need
Moss killing spray
Rake
Bristle brush
Soil test (if applicable)
Tree and hedge trimmers
Step 1
Buy a moss killing spray at your local home improvement store. The kind that you should purchase depends on where the moss that you want to kill is located. If the moss is on your roof, then you might also need to buy a bristle brush with an attachment.
Step 2
Ask a store clerk to help if you have any problems finding the right spray, then follow the directions on the can to eliminate the moss. Killing the moss is not difficult, but the trick is stopping it from returning.
Step 3
Rake up all of the moss once it is dead. Any moss that is remaining could cause another infestation.
Step 4
Test your soil to see if it is too damp. You can buy one of these tests at your home improvement store. Soil that is too damp will breed moss. If your soil is too damp, follow the instructions provided in the test kit to decrease moisture.
Step 5
Trim and cut back any trees or shrubs that are preventing clear air flow or blocking sunlight. Good air flow and plenty of sun will prevent moss from recurring.
