Moss Control in Lawns

Unless you are planning on creating a moss carpet, moss control can be an ongoing problem for lawn owners in Great Vancouver. Let’s face it: moss loves our wet west coast environment. Unlike grass, which favours a more alkaline soil, moss thrives in acidic soil.

Thanks to our heavy winter rainfall, it’s easy for the most nutrient-rich soil to turn acidic. What’s more, given the low level of sunlight and the high concentration of trees in this area, moss can aggressively grow and take over yards. 

We could apply effective moss control powder to remove most moss in lawn once or twice a year. However, usually this treatment needs to be done yearly, as all other lawn programs.
