If you live on the Oregon Coast, moss is not a “maybe.” It is a “when.” You can have a roof that looked clean last summer, then by the time the foggy mornings and the fall rain settle in, you start seeing that green creep in the shaded corners. Usually it starts on the north side, then it works its way into valleys, around chimneys, and under tree cover where the roof never really gets a chance to dry out. Here’s the part most homeowners do not hear enough: moss is not just u
