Jarder’s spray & leave is yet another fantastic product for just such a problem and very fairly priced too.Usually, the moss and weed killing products that work the best are quite strongly bleach based, but this is non bleach, non-caustic, non-acidic, and is completely biodegradable with a neutral PH balance.
