    There has been a lot of moss grown on the lawn over the autumn/winter. Is it best to just rake it over then reseed? Any ideas on how to control it for next year?

    You need to kill it before you rake it, get some iron sulfate from the garden center and add a cup full to a watering can and water on or use a sprayer if you've got one.

    The moss dies and goes black after a few days and you can then rake it out and over seed possibly worth spiking aswell to improve the drainage.
