And if you are on a budget, don’t worry. You don’t have to spend a fortune on expensive cleaning products or garden tools.

This simple trick will save you just £3 – yes, you heard that right.

The most effective way to remove moss is to be proactive and remove it at an early stage.

A gardener keen to get rid of moss and weeds took to the Gardening UK Facebook page to ask for advice.

The garden lover posted two photos of her patio, overgrown with moss and weeds, and asked: “What’s the best way to breathe new life into this paving?”

She added: “We have it at the edge and bottom of our garden and it has been neglected since we moved in (there is a lot of work to be done in and around the garden).

“There is a lot of moss and weeds and some good ant colonies. There is a path on one side of the garden (north side) and then this Nice a little bit below (which is facing west).

“I’d like to clean it up and use it for evening/afternoon seating, but I’m not sure what the best way to do that is?”

Some recommend using a pressure washer, but this is not only expensive but can also damage the paving if not used properly.

Alternatively, many recommend using a household product to remove moss and weeds from the patio – without the need for scrubbing.

Cheap Gardening Tips

  • Keep weeds away with straw
    According to gardeners and plant experts, all-natural straw is one of the most effective tools you can use in your garden.
    You don’t have to buy a whole bale, you can usually buy smaller bundles from your local farm shop, for upwards of £1.50.
    Some shops even sell ready-made bags specifically for gardens, often costing around £10, but can be found on the shelves or online.
  • Call your local garden center
    If you are unsure about how to care for your plants, call or search online at your local garden center instead of using the Internet.
    Nursery staff have up-to-date knowledge of the conditions in your region and can provide you with tips for caring for your plants that are specific to your climate and soil.
    You can call them with a question or just drop by. They also want your plants to grow well.
  • Wood to keep snails out
    Use a piece of wood to keep snails out of your garden.
    According to experts, they crawl under it for shade.
    Then you can collect them and throw them away.
  • Save your toilet paper rolls.
    According to a tip from Family handyman.
    Save the tubes and cut them into two-inch pieces before placing them in a watertight container.
    Then simply fill the tubes with potting soil and start planting your seeds.
    According to the website, if you want to put them in the garden, you can plant them directly in the tubes. Because they are cardboard, they will decompose organically.

“Sprinkle it on and let it rain or spray some water on it and it will be gone in 15 minutes.”

While someone else said the following: “Washing powder and water, let it soak for a while and rinse with the garden hose, then it will come out fine.”

Meanwhile, another user claimed: “I use Aldi organic washing powder to kill moss and algae. Works great.”

If you want to try this trick and you’re running low on washing powder, you can pick up a 1.25kg box of the non-organic stuff from Sainsbury’s for just £3. This makes this trick not only incredibly effective, but also affordable.
