Moss is very invasive in the Pacific Northwest! It can grow in lawns and even on other hard surfaces. Whereas weeds thrive in sunlit areas of your lawn, moss thrives in shady areas that aren’t in direct sunlight. Moss can flourish for many reasons, including the following:
- Poor lawn drainage
- Soil compaction
- Poor ground fertility
- Improper mowing practices
- Too heavily shaded
Call today to schedule a lawn consultation. We can recommend a custom-made course of action fixing the issues causing moss in the lawn including but not limited to the following:
- Consistent mowing and height of cut
- Lawn aeration on a bi-annual or annual basis
- Tree thinning for better light and air flow
- A consistent fertilization and weed control program
- Liming
- Iron application (for a moss die back)
- Thatching
- Over seeding
