To use Moss Out effectively, you'll need to mix it with water and apply it to the affected area. Here's a breakdown of the process:
Mixing Moss Out
The correct mixing ratio is crucial for optimal results.
- Ratio: Mix one part Moss Out concentrate with 19 parts water.
- Example: 6.8 fluid ounces of Moss Out per 1 gallon of water.
- Container: Use a suitable sprayer or container for mixing.
Application
Proper application ensures the Moss Out effectively eliminates moss.
- Application Rate: Apply the mixed solution at a rate of 0.8 to 2.5 gallons per 100 square feet. This translates to approximately 10-30 fluid ounces per square yard.
- Thick Moss: For moss thicker than one inch, use the higher application rate (2.5 gallons per 100 sq ft / 30 fl oz per sq yd).
- Application Method: Use a sprayer to evenly distribute the solution over the moss-covered area.
- Weather: Apply on a day when rain is not expected for at least 24 hours to allow the product to be absorbed.
- Repeat: Reapplication may be necessary for stubborn moss growth. Follow the instructions on your specific Moss Out product label.
Important Considerations
- Safety: Wear appropriate protective gear, such as gloves and eye protection, when handling and applying Moss Out.
- Surrounding Plants: Be careful to avoid spraying desirable plants, as Moss Out can harm them.
- Product Label: Always read and follow the specific instructions on the Moss Out product label, as formulations and recommendations may vary.
- Water Quality: Use clean water for mixing the solution.
