Comments:
WMT note that there has been some recolonisation of moss which is to be expected. The rate that biological deposits reappear are affected by a number of factors such as surrounding vegetation and the air quality. Moss can be removed as part of a maintenance program using wooden spatulas. WMT do not support the use of biocides in such cases as the use of acid or alkali based products can affect stone. It is increasingly recognised that biocides can promote biological growth, this may be due to phosphates contained in biocides. The use of these chemicals are generally only effective for a short period of time unless the underlying reason for the biological growth has been addressed
