Moss Removal Moss damage and “roof cancer” can be costly Moss can eat away and stain wood-shingles, push up composition shingles, expose the underlying tar paper and destroy a roof in just a few years. It can also cause leaks, water damage and rot inside your home. The first step in any moss treatment is to kill the moss, and to prevent any damage from occurring at the earliest opportunity. This is done to the entire roof, which not only eliminates the moss, but prevents future spore growth as well. Although scraping and brushing the moss from the roof, may be more immediately gratifying aesthetically, it also spreads the rhizomes and spores making the infestation more severe. Killing the moss first is absolutely paramount in this process. Moss growth is attributed to factors such as.. moisture, shade and nearby trees. Most homes are only affected by moss on one or two sides, such as the North and East. Moss is a bryophite, which absorbs water through osmosis. It is very vulnerable to dehydration.
