Moss Treatment
#1
Question:
Is it safe to use Tide (laundry detergent) as a moss treatment on an asphalt shingle/tar paper roof? Sprinkle it on and wait for the rain to wash it into the moss, thereby killing it? What about the roofing materials?

The tide is right, just the wrong application. What you want to do, is mix up a solution heavy on the liquid tide with hot water, and them mop it on your roof. Heavy on the tide. This is a good method, and will last one to 2 years before renewing.
