Weed, Moss & Algae Control

Frequently Asked Questions

What causes moss to grow in lawns?

Moss in lawns is often a sign of poor drainage, low nutrient levels, compacted soil, or excessive shade. Addressing the root cause alongside using moss control products will help prevent it from returning.

When is the best time to apply moss control to my lawn?

Apply moss control in spring or early autumn, when the lawn is actively growing. This allows grass to recover and fill in once the moss is treated. Avoid applying during frosty or very dry periods. Read our guide to moss control for more seasonal tips.

Can I apply weed killer and moss killer at the same time?

Yes – we recommend using an all-in-one Weed, Feed & Moss Killer for ease and balanced results. Avoid mixing separate weed and moss products unless they’re designed to work together, and never mix in the same sprayer unless advised by the manufacturer.

What’s the difference between total and selective weed killers?

Total weed killers kill all vegetation and are best used on paths, patios, or areas being cleared. Selective weed killers target specific weeds (like dandelions or clover) without harming grass or other desired plants.

Can I use moss or algae control on hard surfaces?

Yes – we offer hard surface cleaners designed for patios, decking, driveways, and paths. These break down growth without damaging surfaces when used as directed.

Are your weed killers safe for use around animals?

Many of our products are safe once dry, but always check the product label. We advise keeping pets and livestock off treated areas until the product has fully dried or the recommended re-entry time has passed.
