Outdoor Wall CleanerThe exterior walls of your home get put through a lot, and chances are they aren’t looking their best because of it. Mould, lichen and moss are common pests for the outside of your home, and sometimes their effects aren’t just concerning aesthetics. Moss and mould growth can present serious problems for the integrity of your home and may even indicate serious repairs that need to be addressed. So, what is the best solution for effectively removing these pests from your walls?

Wall Maintenance

Whether your walls are stone, brick or plaster, you’ll have no doubt acquired some unwanted pests on their exterior. With their rough texture and environment, water retention is often promoted on their surface, which in turn helps the growth of any moss, algae, lichen or mould. As these all affect the structure of your home as well as the appearance, it’s important to keep on top of any maintenance.

Pressure washing is often a popular choice for removing unwanted additions to your walls, but this can actually damage your house even further by wearing down the stone and in some cases stripping off any mortar. Hand washing is another option, but this is a very laborious procedure – as well as being extremely impractical. You may also be tempted to experiment with harsh chemicals based on bleach, caustic or acid solutions to strip away any moss, algae or lichen. This, however, can not only be damaging to the surface of your walls but also any surrounding plants, pets or children. As such, it is suggested that you steer clear of any such chemicals.
