Removing Moss

Hi All

Can anyone out there give me advice on removing moss form my lawn and in the flowerbeds? It has appeared in patches over this winter and seem to be spreading.

Any advice welcomed

Thanks

    You could apply Ferrous Sulphate for killing moss in lawns. The moss will go black then it will be easier to rake. Looks awful at first but will green up. After I did it I scattered grass seed mixed with compost over the lawn. Looked much better in the end.

    At the rate the robins and bluetits are gathering moss from our back lawn today, there won't be any left in a few days' time image
