When you’re
spending time outdoors in the warm, sunny weather this spring you’ll probably
notice some ugly green algae has appeared on your garden shed siding. After a
wet winter algae often grows on the north facing side of walls. If you have decided that removing this algae
will be your first spring cleanup chore, a spray bottle and some bleach should
do the trick.
For a nice
clean shed just do the following: fill a spray bottle with half bleach and half
water. It should be strong enough to cut off anything. Have a bucket of rinse
water, a sponge and some dry rags. Spray the algae generously and let it set
for a few moments. When you see streams of green running from the area you just
sprayed, wash it off with clean rinse water and a sponge then dry the area with
the rags. If the algae is thick, it might leave a greenish stain, just repeat
the process and rinse it off again.
