For dealing with light infestations on felt roof tiles, such as moss, a common and effective method is using a stiff brush.
Using a Stiff Brush
The most straightforward approach mentioned for cleaning felt shingles with light infestations is giving the roof a good brushing with a stiff brush. This physical action helps to loosen the moss and other debris.
Here's the basic process:
- Step 1: Obtain a stiff brush suitable for outdoor use.
- Step 2: Carefully and firmly brush the surface of the felt tiles where moss or light debris is present. The goal is to dislodge the material from the felt.
- Step 3: Once the debris is loosened by brushing, it should be easy to sweep the debris away.
This method is particularly suitable for minor growth and avoids the potential issues associated with using water or chemicals on felt.
