Westland 500m Lawn Feed Weed Moss Killer

Product Information

If you’re after an effective product that won’t need to be applied too many times, the Westland Aftercut Lawn Feed, Weed & Moss Killer works to eliminate moss and weeds whilst helping with grass growth. It only needs to be applied twice a year, once in the spring and once towards the end of summer, improving the appearance and health of the lawn without being too time consuming. For this reason, it’s the best lawn moss killer if you want a low-maintenance option.

Spray during suitable weather and ground conditions. Choose a dry day that is relatively still to avoid the chemical drifting onto non-target plants. It is also important that there is no rain forecast as this can wash the chemical off the leaves of the weeds and reduce the effectiveness of the weed killer.Using a moss killer will stop this spread, and the majority of them will actually fertilise your lawn and help improve its appearance. You can apply Westland SafeLawn every three weeks between February and September, but it’s advised not to use during either a drought or when the ground is frosted over. This 5.25kg bag should provide 150m² of lawn coverage. These claim to achieve good control of moss, as well as feeding the lawn – products include VianoMO Bacter Organic Lawn Fertiliser, Neudorff Organic CleanLawn, VitaxMoss Remover No Rake and Miracle-Gro Evergreen No Rake. It doesn’t contain anything specific to combat weeds, so if killing weeds alongside refreshing the lawn is a priority, this may not be the best lawn feed for that purpose. However, healthier lawns in general do stay more resistant to both weeds and moss. These feed the grass , which is all most lawns need to keep them looking good. If you want to feed the grass as well as kill moss or weeds, look further down for products that contain both or even all three.

It’s best to use a spreader to ensure even coverage of this Feed, Weed & Moss Killer, and doing so can also help achieve the stipulated coverage of 500 m². There’s enough product in the 17 kg bag to cover a medium to large garden, as long as it is spread accurately. If you’re looking for a more environmentally-friendly way to get rid of moss, consider using a salt solution. A salt solution is made by dissolving salt in water. When applied to the lawn, it will kill the moss and any other plants that are growing on your lawn. Having a soluble formula also means that there is less likelihood of scorching – this happens when a high concentration of product is applied to one place and burns it and is more common with granules.

Plus, given that one bottle should be sufficient to cover around 166 m² of lawn, economically speaking it’s quite fairly priced. The best way to control excess lawn moss is to improve the growing conditions of the grass, so it becomesmore vigorous and dense, outcompeting the moss. Lawn Gold Lawn Fertilizer & Moss Remover is the best lawn moss killer if you want a chemical-free product with organically-based ingredients. It works to create an environment that will successfully deter moss, containingcalcium which is used to reduce soil acidity. Moss thrives in acidic ground, so combatting its growth by improving the composition of the soil is an excellent, long-term solution. Secondly, the size of the lawn is a decisive factor before buying. If you own a large lawn, it may have widespread moss infestation, you can consider a large capacity moss killer which can cover your yard thoroughly. My new natural Moss Remover is now even better than my previous formula. It now contains more moss beating potash and even more (13 species) of the natural occurring ‘friendly’ bacteria to remove the dying moss. How to Use:

Does 4 jobs in 1 easy application- greens grass, kills a range of weeds, removes moss and fertilises the grass. If you’re looking for a lawn fertiliser that also does a great job at eliminating pesky weeds and moss, go with Guard-en-Force. A kilo of this stuff will cover (and get rid of) around 500 square metres of moss.Diluted moss killers often show visible results within one to two days . Although, they shouldn’t be applied if rain is forecast as they may wash away and become less effective. Granular moss killers generally take effect in around two weeks . They slowly release their active ingredient so bad weather shouldn’t reduce their effectiveness. For grass that needs a consistent helping hand, the MOOWY All Season Lawn Feed can be applied once every 90 days, keeping the lawn topped up no matter the season. One bag will treat up to 625m² and can be applied at 32 grams per square metre. The key to reducing moss is to have effective all-year round management. That said, it wouldn’t be the worst thing in the world to have a supply of both. That way, you can apply lawn feed + weed killer twice a year, but keep the grass topped up with lawn feed the rest of the time. Choosing Liquid or Granular Formulas Unlike a lot of moss removers featured on this list, this is not a weed killer. It can help deter weeds, by generally encouraging the healthy growth of grass, but it does not contain chemicals to specifically fight them. This is the reason it is referred to as an organic product, as it is chemical free with organically-based ingredients. For many gardeners, this may add to its appeal, as it should not be as harmful to the environment as some chemical products.

These products can be applied from March to October when temperatures are above 15°C (59°F). Theyrequire wetting before they become active.Mow the lawn short before application andwait seven to ten days before mowing again.This lawn feed is particularly effective when used in the autumn through until spring for ridding your lawn of worm casts too, as the slimy remnants can make mowing the grass rather muddy and slippery.
