Is mosskiller safe to use near border plants?

- LINDSAY BREWSTER, BRISTOL

If applied carefully to the moss only, and not splashed onto surroundin­g plants, some mosskiller­s can help control moss on border soil. It sounds as though the soil may be compacted and damp. A better way to control the moss is to keep the surface aerated by forking it over or laying a gravel surface mulch.
