    If it’s very thick, an initial scrape with a hoe is worthwhile before applying a product like Patio Magic, Wet and Forget or Algon. They can take a few days to work but if you follow the instructions carefully you’ll see an improvement. I treat my paving and driveway a couple of times a year.

    You could also try brushing hard with sharp sand or even a bag of lawn sand, which kills moss.
    Might be a lot cheaper if a lot more effort!
