moss is dry, thoroughly wet moss with water before treating.
Repeat treatment annually, or when new moss or algae are visible.

Follow-Up on Domestic Lawns and Ornamental Gardens: Lightly rinse treated
areas with water (1 gallon per 1000 sq. ft. or less) 15 to 30 minutes after treatment to
avoid grass and plant damage. Test spray a small area prior to using. Do not heavily
