Different sulphate products for insect killing


Posted February 9, 2021 by ironsulphate

Chemical moss killers containing ferrous sulphate are the most effective method of eradicating moss in lawns.

 
Chemical moss killer lawns are typically applied in autumn or spring when the weather is cool and wet, so that lawn seed which are sown afterwards to cover bare areas is most likely to germinate.

For gardeners they use garden border edging that prefer not to use synthetic chemicals, organic moss killers are also available. These don’t contain ferrous sulphate, using bacteria instead to break down the moss. An advantage of organic moss killers is that since the bacteria effectively ‘digest’ the moss in situ, it doesn’t go black and needs no raking out. Organic moss killers need a temperature above 15ºC (59ºF) to work and can be applied from late spring to autumn.

Moss killer can be applied either by hand or by using a manual spreader that can be pushed over the lawn. Chemical moss killers affect soil acidity levels, so it’s important to apply moss killer evenly across the whole lawn, not just in problem areas, otherwise the lawn may grow back patchy and discolored.
Moss killer should be applied in fine weather, but again, always check the manufacturer’s instructions, as some products require watering to activate.

The lawn edging of Iron Sulphate keeps grass roots from creeping into the stone wall, and the mulch provides a mowing track for lawn mower wheels. With taller types of grass, you can mow right over the plastic border and cut the lawn edge cleanly. There’s no need to trim the grass. This project doesn’t require any special skills, just a strong back. For metal lawn edging you’ll need a hacksaw, and for stone lawn edging we will need a cold chisel. Remember to wear safety hard wearing grass when installing our landscape edging.
A hard-wearing grass can tolerate the wear and tear of lots of traffic and quickly repairs when damaged.

Hard-wearing grasses are ideal for families wanting a place for children and dogs to play or where the lawn is used as a walkway.
