Moss on a shaded Mission Hills slope should be treated rather than scraped, since scraping takes the granules with it.
Mission Hills gets its rain in a handful of concentrated winter storms, which means drainage that sat dry collecting debris has to move everything at once. Los Angeles County is no different. Attic ventilation on a Mission Hills property is not optional — trapped high temperatures cooks the covering from underneath. Thermal cycling does the damage in Mission Hills — hot afternoons, cool nights, and materials expanding and contracting against their fixings all year.
