Van Vegetation

[tigger2000]

I seem to have some vegetation growing between the panes of the sliding window behind the sink. It's a lovely bright green moss, which just regrows every time I scrape it out. Does anyone have any tips for getting rid of it or should I just sow some mustard and cress in there instead?

I get that too. You're right, scraping doesn't get rid at all. Not sure about mustard and cress; I'm considering asparagus. Do you park it in the same space/direction constantly? I do and thought that might be at least partially responsible - I've mulled with the idea of 'garden' moss killing stuff etc but don't know what it'd do to the paintwork.....

Bit of 2:1 bleach/water sprayed on should do after a scrape. Obviously then making sure you clean up any excess on paintwork and window rubbers pretty sharpish.

go at it with a pressure washer, should get all the dirt out that it's growing in!

bleach.
and park the other way round, moss only grow on the north facing side.......

My van faces West and it grows!!!!...so what's that theory Mocki?....

if the van is facing west then the driverside is facing north

Van offside faces West front faces South.... should have known to make it clearer!
