We have what I think is moss along with various weeds growing between our patio pavers. We also have various weeds growing between the concrete slabs on our driveway (in the expansion joints). Please see the attached pictures. Any recommendations for getting rid of them would be appreciated.

Expert Response
Hand pulling the weeds and scraping away the moss is the least invasive method of ridding the area of these. Moss grows in moist conditions. To keep the area free of the moss you will need to identify what is causing standing water/moisture and eliminate it. There are chemical methods of removal that can be found at big box stores. When using a chemical always follow label instructions exactly.
