removing Moss from deck carpet

drummerlad · 2019-02-12 14:57:29

Hello, I have blue deck carpet on the aft deck of my boat and over the past year Moss has grown on it and I am unable to get it out. I tried a power washer on it and it did not budge. Does anyone have any tips on removing moss ? thanks Regards, Brian

Most commercial moss cleaners would be harmful to marine life so your best bet is to use a wet and dry vac and try to dry out the carpet then scrub it with some white vinegar and then wet and dry vac again.

Thanks, I will try the White Vinegar as I don't want to harm any wildlife.
