    I normally sprinkle the power when the ground is damp or when some light rain is due. No point in putting it down if monsoon rain is due.

    When rain is due put it on. Although I put it down once and didn’t rain for a few days and still did the job

    Accepting the moss is not doing you any harm would be the cheapest option.

    I find if left untreated it gets onto the car. Washing powder is best.

    True. And if it’s windy you get covered in it but at least your clean

    Feck if it was the council's tarmac you could slip,.claim and you'd get money. With an added bonus of them cleaning it pronto.

    I spread some Daz on the drive on Friday last
    How long does it take to kill the moss?

    we have a very large gravel area to get rid of moss, was wondering could we use the liquid Formil in the knapsack and spray it on, as we have gone through 4 boxes of washing powder and only a small fraction of the total area covered, I also see somewhere that adding some bleach to the mix helps

    A few bags of milling salt will do the job well.
    A 25kg bag is ~ 5 euro in a hardware store.
    Its much cheaper than washing powder and does the same job.
