It’s been a relatively mild but incredibly wet winter and the forecast doesn’t show things improving any time soon. It’s been the ideal conditions for mould and algae, which can be lethal underfoot and spread rapidly.
If your paving slabs or fencing have taken on a greenish tinge, there’s currently 25% off a cleaning product that more than 17,000 Amazon shoppers swear by. A five litre tub of Wet & Forget Mould, Lichen and Algae Remover is down to £26.90 and ‘does exactly as advertised’.

The non-bleach formula is ideal for roofs, bricks, natural stone pavers, concrete, tarmac, headstones, solar panels, artificial grass, caravans and more, reports the Express. “Such a great product, easy to use – you just fill with water as per instructions and spray and leave. The end,” said one happy customer.
“Results took probably around a week, but my patio was so clean, it removed all the mould and algae. Amazing that this was also pet friendly as I have a dog and wanted to ensure this was safe. Highly highly recommend.”
If you’re looking for alternatives, Spear and Jackson Spray and Leave costs £28.99 at B&Q for two five-litre bottles and delivers impressive results on patios and driveways, as well as fencing and decking. They say results will be visible in a few days and will keep improving over time.
Or Amazon’s powerful Sodium Hypochlorite Patio Cleaner costs £17.99 for two five-litre bottles. The concentrated industrial bleach and disinfectant is professional-grade strength and starts breaking down stubborn dirt, grime and organic growth in minutes, whether on paving, walls, fences or brickwork.
However, Wet & Forget gets an overall rating of 4.4 stars from more than 27,000 Amazon customers. One said: “I just mixed this as per the directions and sprayed with a garden sprayer onto the surfaces affected. That was Sunday. By Friday, the green was completely gone! Very happy indeed.”
Another added: “Wet & Forget is honestly one of the best outdoor cleaners I’ve ever used. I applied it to my patio, fencing, and the side of the house where mould and green algae always build up – no scrubbing, no pressure washing, nothing. Within a couple of days I could already see the difference, and after a week the surfaces looked like new.”
