I had green algae all over my patio – it looks brand new thanks to a ‘magic’ buy that’s ‘brilliant’ at killing mould
HAVE you left your patio untouched throughout the winter months?
Well, chances are it’s probably in desperate need of some TLC…and is covered in the likes of green algae and mould.
But there’s no need to fork out on a jet washer, because it turns out there’s a bargain buy from B&Q that gardening fans have been going wild for – and they say it works like “magic” at removing patio stains.
It comes after a woman took to Facebook group Mrs Hinch Cleaning Tips and asked: “Looking for advice on cleaning my patio.
“Every year I clean it with my pressure washer but over the summer I have to keep doing it to keep on top of it as it still goes green.
“This year however it’s REALLY BAD!
“Looking for a product to put on that will prevent it from the green coming back so quickly, does anyone have any recommendations?”
And luckily, she wasn’t short of answers, with many suggesting the same product – Patio Magic.
The bargain buy, which can be bought for £12.75 at B&Q, claims to be “ideal for killing and controlling most algae, moss and mould on driveways and patios in a single application.”
Patio Magic. It’s what it’s called … magic
Satisfied B&Q customer
The review section have been flooded with five star reviews, with one writing: “Great product for getting rid of green moss without having to scrub.
“Bought this several times as it is a very good product.”
A second penned: “Brilliant Patio Cleaner – Easy to use gets rid of all the Green – our driveway, paths and patio come up a treat. Just spray and leave. Long lasting too. Always use this.”
Meanwhile, a third told how they used it on their fences that had turned green and black over winter.
“Easy to apply and the dirt just melts away over 2 to 3 days with no scrubbing necessary,” they commented.
A fourth enthused: “Patio Magic. It’s what it’s called … magic.”
And further chimed in: “Patio magic is brilliant just used on our patio definitely worth the money.”
