Can all the algae & moss that sprang up from nowhere on my deck and siding be a result of the weird weather we are

Flowerscapes Garden Design & Landscaping on Mar 13, 2012Perhaps more shade and moisture. Or maybe not enough strong sunlight to dry the deck off in between moist weather bouts. I bet the painting and deck people would be able to zero in on the reason.Helpful Reply

Terri J on Mar 14, 2012Thank you for the suggestions but this doesn't answer my question because b/c it is not the weathr conditions weather conditions we are having. It hasn't rained here much, snowed vwey little, and I am not the only one with tis isssue - except for mine seems to be worse. It is warmer than usual here my lhouse gets lots of natural sun...However, I was looking at my neighbor's roof last night= old aspestas (spelling?) an noticed it on her roof from the back, - pehaps that is the start, and it is just blowing around in the wind, and my hous is next in line to catch it. I don't know either though for sure.Helpful Reply
