Frequently Asked Questions
Can you apply moss treatment in wet weather?
While some treatments require dry conditions to properly adhere and activate, others are rain-tolerant and can still work when applied in light rain. However, dry weather is generally preferred to ensure maximum product effectiveness.
Will the team walk on my roof to apply treatment?
Where possible, treatment is applied from the ground or with ladders and extension tools. If roof access is necessary, professionals take care to avoid damage — particularly with delicate materials like concrete or clay tiles. They assess safety and material fragility before stepping on any roof.
Is moss treatment safe for tank water systems?
If you collect rainwater, it’s important to disconnect your tank during treatment and leave it disconnected for the period recommended by your service provider (often a couple of rainfalls). Eco-friendly products are available that are safer for tank systems, but always mention your setup beforehand.
How will I know if the treatment is working?
You will start to see moss discolour and die off over the following weeks. Dead moss may take time to naturally break down and fall off, especially in areas with minimal rainfall. Your provider may offer optional rinsing if quicker results are desired.
Are chemical moss treatments safe for my roof?
When applied correctly, chemical treatments specifically designed for roofs are safe and effective. DryGutts have the knowledge and experience to ensure proper application.
What time of year is best for moss treatment?
Treating moss during its active growing seasons—typically in the cooler, wetter months—is most effective. However, treatments can be applied year-round as needed.
Are there eco-friendly options for moss removal?
Yes, DryGutts use biodegradable chemical treatments that are less harmful to the environment.
