I need help with "moss" competing with Tifton and common bemuda grass in my lawn. I have a fairly large front lawn with sandy loam soil. It can come a pretty hard rain and an hour later I can kick up dust in areas where the grass is not real thick. I have five 30 year old live oak trees which take more than their fair share of moisture and I don't have a sprinkler system. Please bear with me while I add a few more details. I know I have contributed to the problem by bagging the clippings and picking up valuable top soil in the areas where the grass is not as thick during dry spells. I always thought "moss" liked a dark, damp environment, but I have moss thriving in areas that receive total sun all day. I have had a soil sample which said I needed to add lime, which I have done over time with little noticeable change. A year or so ago Scott fertilizer had a product advertised for use on lime but they discontinued it and haven't added anything in its place. Anything I can find to kill moss also kills grass. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
