Abstract/Contents:Profiles a variety of mosses and how to control them, explaining that "the trick is finding what cultrual and chemical controls provide the best defense against the squishy foe." Discusses the method of chemical control, stating that "until recently, true chemical control of moss was nonexistent...but times have changed and researchers, superintendents and the whole turf industry have learned to control, eradicate and prevent moss using chemicals." States that "moss is controllable and preventable. But getting the right combination of chemical and cultural controls may have come through trial and error."
