Hello,

Have a fair amount of green moss on driveway and rocks that I would like
to kill.  Have scrapped a lot of it away, but the amount that seems to be
un-scrappable is still large.

Can I use Vinegar to kill the stuff ?
If so, use as it comes out of the bottlew, or should it be mixed with water
?
If so, at what ratio ?

Is Chlorox "better" ?  Why ?
If so, same questions as above re ratio to mix, etc. ?

Much thanks,
Bob

 Pressure wash it.

Chemicals should be safe for asphalt but I'd not use on concrete.
Deck wash which has bleach in it gets the green stuff off the deck but
still takes scrubbing.

 Vinegar and bleach are acid and moss likes acid soil.   I suggest using some
hydrated lime instead.

 What about that bleach kitchen spray?  Would that be safe to use
outside?
