The grass in my garden is being overrun by some sort of moss ( see attached picture ).

Question

The ground is heavy with clay, regularly becomes waterlogged with water sitting on the surface after heavy rain. I have attempted to dig it up as turfs and dispose of them, but the work is very hard going and I appear to be losing the battle. Do yo have any suggestions please.

Answer 1

Boiling water will kill just about anything off in the soil. Try this once or twice per day for a few days. You will also need to amend the soil to make it more favorable to other plants.
