How do you get rid of moss from cobblestones? This question is frequently asked by people who own single-family homes and gardens. Moss, an essential component of the forest floor, is not desirable between cobblestones. Try this simple, homemade trick involving water and a special product to make it disappear in a few days.

How to get rid of moss from cobblestones?

Moss on cobblestones damages the surface and makes it very slippery, potentially leading to accidents. If it has appeared on your home sidewalk, grab these products and eliminate it as quickly as possible.

One way to remove moss from cobblestones is to mix white vinegar with water in a 2:1 ratio and transfer it to a spray bottle. Shake the mixture well and spray it generously over the moss-covered areas of the cobblestones. Don't skimp on the solution.

If there is a lot of moss, you can use undiluted vinegar. It will work faster and more effectively, burning off the moss, which will disappear after a few days. If not, apply the same method a week later. Do not use it more than once a week.

Moss on the lawn? Try this

If you're dealing with moss that constantly grows on your lawn, there are simple and proven methods to address it. One of them is wood ash from a fireplace or bonfire. Ash contains many beneficial substances, such as calcium, potassium, phosphorus, and magnesium, essential for proper grass growth. Spread it on the lawn, and you'll see the moss disappear like magic. It will also enhance the color and condition of the grass.

Iron sulfate is another product that can help remove moss from the lawn. It has a similar effect. The sulfate contains iron and sulfur, which lower the soil's pH. Spread iron sulfate over the lawn's surface, and the moss will turn black in two or three days. Then, you can easily rake it out.
