Moss and lichens may seem harmless, but they can pose a real threat to the health and aesthetics of your trees.
Our expert demossing service team is here to help you reclaim the beauty and vitality of your green spaces.
Understanding Moss and Lichens
Moss and lichens are unique plants that can grow on trees, fences, and other surfaces.
While they don’t directly harm the tree, their growth can block sunlight, add weight to branches, and make your trees look neglected.
Contrary to popular belief, mosses like Spanish Moss and Ball Moss are not parasites but epiphytes, meaning they derive nutrients from the air, rain, and debris rather than the tree itself.
Types of Moss We Handle
- Spanish Moss: Commonly found in humid areas, draping from trees like natural garlands.
- Ball Moss: Prefers the inner canopy and avoids direct sunlight.
- Lichens: A combination of fungus and algae, growing together on the tree surface.

Moss Management Tips
Effective moss control is a combination of manual picking, pruning, and chemical treatment. While picking is labor-intensive, it provides immediate results. Pruning allows sunlight to reach the inner canopy, discouraging moss growth. Chemical treatments are best applied during spring for maximum effectiveness.
