My favorite part of spring cleaning is outdoor spring cleaning. After a long winter indoors, it feels so good to get outside and enjoy the sunshine while getting ready for the next few days of cleaning in the yard.
Ever since my dad introduced me to Wet & Forget spray, available at Walmart, cleaning patio algae and moss has become a breeze. It cleans patio pavers in less than half an hour without a pressure washer and provides months of algae and moss protection.
Cleaning a patio is usually a fair bit of manual labor, and keeping everything looking its best can be a lot of manual labor. So I’m always on the lookout for tools and products that can make outdoor spring cleaning less labor intensive while still making sure it’s effective.
Wet & Forget is a cleaning solution that penetrates outdoor surfaces and kills mold, moss, and algae without scrubbing. Just spray it on and forget it while the cleaning solution does all the work for you. It’s my go-to cleaning hack.
You have to trust this backyard cleaning trick to work. You won’t see any changes right away. Instead, you have to let the spray sit and work over the next few weeks and months. It will slowly kill the algae and moss while forming a protective film to prevent them from returning quickly.
Cleaning your patio with Wet & Forget is easy, and all you need are a few simple tools:
A stiff-bristled broom, available at Walmart, to sweep up debris.
Wet & Forget Outdoor Spray, available at The Home Depot.
If your Wet & Forget isn’t ready to use, use purified water.
Optional: If your solution doesn’t come with a spray pump, you can purchase an easy-to-carry garden sprayer and pump from Walmart.
Optional: A helper can help you carry any heavy patio furniture.
