Moss Control
Due to all the wet weather moss have become a huge problem all across the UK causing havock to your lawn. The below article will show you how to treat moss or even get rid of it if the correct steps are followed!
Aearation
From having a lack of airflow in yours soil causes compaction and then cannot hold or drain water. This creates a unhealthy unactive lawn.
Aeration is the key to fix your issue! Just hire/buy a aerator from a local diy store and go around creating holes to let air in and make your soil breath! If you have a smaller garden you could go around with a garden fork creating holes! If its too compacted to get the fork in water the lawn or wait unit its rained to spike it.
Iron Sulphate
By using Iron sulphate it will green up the grass and also blacken the moss. Its best to use when its cool wet conditions to help it go deep into the moss and reduce any possibility of any type of damage to the grass. Its best to apply a lower rate first time and apply twice rather than going too strong.
