Product Information

Full details

This Vitax Lawn Fertiliser - Moss Remover is designed for homeowners looking to improve lawn health and reduce moss. Its key benefit is dual action: it feeds the grass while simultaneously encouraging moss breakdown. A potential caveat is that it's a treatment and not an instant solution for heavily moss-infested lawns, requiring time for grass to establish.

FAQs

When is the best time to apply Vitax Moss Remover?

The best times are spring (March to May) and autumn (September to November), when the grass is actively growing and conditions are generally moist.

How long does it take to see results?

You should begin to see moss turning black and breaking down within one to two weeks. Significant improvement in grass density and colour may take 4-6 weeks.

Can I use this product on new lawns?

It is generally recommended to wait until the new lawn has been established for at least 6-12 months before applying fertilisers, especially those with moss-reducing properties.

How much area does the 100 square meter tub cover?

The tub is designed to treat up to 100 square meters of lawn when applied at the recommended rate.

What should I do with the dead moss?

After the moss has broken down (usually 1-2 weeks post-application), it should be raked out of the lawn to allow new grass to grow.

Is this product safe for pets and children?

Keep pets and children away from the treated area until it has been watered in and dried, as per standard fertiliser safety advice. Store the product securely.

Can I use this product in winter?

It is not recommended to use this product during winter months when grass growth is minimal and temperatures are consistently low.

Troubleshooting

Moss is not breaking down after application.

Ensure the product was applied evenly and at the correct rate. Check if conditions were suitable (e.g., not too dry or wet). Reapplication may be needed after several weeks if moss is severe.

Lawn appears scorched or damaged.

This can happen if the product was applied too thickly or unevenly. Avoid applying in direct, hot sun or when the lawn is very dry. Water the affected area thoroughly and monitor for recovery. Ensure correct application rates are followed in the future.

Grass growth is slow after application.

Ensure sufficient water is available to the lawn. Avoid application during extreme heat. If the soil is very compacted, consider aeration. The product provides nutrients; grass needs water and light to utilise them.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

This product is a granular fertiliser. Ensure the product is dry before application. Use a garden spreader for even distribution or apply by hand, ensuring an even spread to avoid scorch marks.

Compatibility:

Suitable for most lawn types. It's recommended to test on a small, inconspicuous area first if you have particularly sensitive grass varieties. Avoid application during drought or when the lawn is stressed.

Care:

Store the tub in a cool, dry place away from children and pets. Reseal the tub tightly after each use. Clean any spills immediately from paths and patios to prevent staining. Dispose of empty packaging responsibly.
