    Hi,
    In the autumn I scarified and used the usual autumn treatment that has a moss killer in it.
    After the wet winter I find the lawn has been taken over by moss, loads of it.
    I understand that scarifying it now will make a real mess (I did it a few years ago) and it seems a bit early for weed and feed type stuff.
    My back lawn is used by little-uns whenever it is warm enough so raking up big patches for re seed is a problem.
    What would be the best plan of action?
    I need a practical area for play rather than a bowling green.

    Cheers
    D
