While Roundup effectively kills weeds, unfortunately, it doesn’t do the same to moss. Moss is considered a non-vascular plant; unlike weeds, they do not have a root system.
As a result, they must be handled differently from weeds.

As stated, roundup is only effective in eradicating weeds; it won’t leave any effect on moss. There are also various ways to kill moss on bricks. You can use natural or chemical solutions or even pressure wash them.
Will Roundup kill grass if accidentally sprayed?
Yes, since roundup is labeled as a non-selective herbicide.
A non-selective herbicide kills “all plants” by preventing the enzymes from producing amino acids; without the amino acids, the plant will eventually die. Roundup must be used cautiously to avoid killing plants or grass nearby.
