Thanks Apparently, moss and algae don't like zinc. *I've seen reports where thin strips of zinc (flashing or something like it) would leach enough zinc ions down with the rain or so that no moss or algae would start growing. *It presumes that there is no moss or algae to start with, then keeps it that way. *DAGS for details, as I don't know them. -- Best regards Han email address is invalid Aside: Han, I did a Google search for "DAGS"...and it didn't come-up!

I thought Han's search abilities were lacking, but it doesn't even come up on Wikipedia. DAGS must just be an a.h.r familiar acronym. Google may be trying to push their LMGTFY feature-- or prefer we use the more direct and forceful JFGI.g Jim |

DAGS *is* there, so I think not. . . but then I Google DAGS acronymfinder -- and I get the acronymfinder page for DAG as #1- and no DAGS on the first page. Weird. Jim |
