It is common to find green and slippery algae growing on open halls, tiles and concrete surfaces of your home during the rainy season. This not only looks unhygienic but also causes slips and accidents.

People work very hard to remove it and still do not get any result. In such a situation, today we will tell you some tips with which the moss in your house will be removed easily.

Spray white vinegar

Mix equal amounts of water in vinegar and spray it on the affected area and leave it for 30–60 minutes. Then scrub with a brush and clean with water. This removes the moss completely.

Apply baking soda paste

Make a paste of baking soda by adding some water and apply it on the mossy area, clean it with a brush after 15–20 minutes. Moss gets removed with just a light scratch.

Lemon and salt scrub

Wherever there is algae in your house, sprinkle salt there and add lemon juice on it. Also, scrub with a brush after 10-15 minutes. Both algae and bad odour will go away.

Boil the water and pour it in

Carefully pour the boiling water on the mossy part, then clean it with an iron brush. This is a natural process and eradicates the moss from its roots.

Use a pressure washer

If the moss area is large or difficult to scrub off, use a low-pressure pressure washer, but be careful not to damage the paint when using it.

Bleach water solution

Mix 1 part bleach + 4 parts water and apply it on the mossy parts. Rub after 10–15 minutes and wash with water. But keep a distance from gardens or plants. In such a case, your plants may get damaged.

Keep drainage and dry

Do not allow water to collect on any surfaces. Improve the slope of the roof, keep drains clean and allow air and sunlight to reach the surfaces. This will prevent moss from forming in the area.

The problem of moss can be more than average during the rainy season, but it is easy to prevent. By adopting all these measures, you can clean the moss from your house.
