Works well, but needs applied heavily.
As long as you don't spread it too thin, it works well. You have to use a fair amount and it will kill the moss. This is far cheaper than the alternative the big box stores carry.

Poor Packaging. Effective Product
I've used the product several times. It appears to kill moss. The problem is that once established, moss has produced enough spores to continue for years. I've done the post kill power raking and pick up of the dead, or, at least blackened, moss. A LOT of work. The next year it is back pretty much the same, maybe somewhat less. So, it's a yearly battle just to have some semblance of control. Commercial lawn services (True Green, etc.) tend to get real quiet when asked about moss control. Their answer to the question tells me a lot about their expertise. Bottom line is that it's the most effective and best cost wise of moss control on the market.I ordered 3 bags (the sale was limited to a max of 3). the first bag came separately and was packaged well. The second 2 bags didn't have enough filler in the box which allowed too much movement resulting in a torn bag with about 25% of its contents spilled in the box. The result was a bit of a mess and you have to watch this stuff as it (and the Scott's version as well) will rust stain surfaces if you get any moisture on spilled contents. I dinged the stars for that reason.

Know your spreader settings
Males my cold season grasses thick and green. This is a small grain product, easy to apply to much to an area. Know your spreader settings when using. To much does not seem to hurt my turf, just not getting best value.

Mixed results
Worked well enough to kill some smaller nuisance patches but I have some serious moss that requires a more aggressive approach.

Use the granules, pile it on, directly on top of the moss, with a gloved hand.
I've been using Moss Out granules for years. My yard has heavy moss along the top of stone walls and the grass next to them, and at the base of fences and walls, especially on the south side. The rest of my yard doesn't have moss. The sprays are okay, but if you take care to apply the granules with a gloved hand, right on top of the clumps of moss, and pile it on thick, that moss will be dead in no time. Put the granules where you need it most and cover the moss completely with a heavy dose of granules. You'll get much better results that way than with the hose spray (liquid) or a spreader (granules). Moss eventually wants to come back, but just keep on applying Moss Out when you see any moss. I apply it in March when the ground is wet and more rain is on the way.

Moss is so yucky!
I had SO much moss in my yard! I finally decided to take steps and bought this product. It worked so well in only about one day! The moss turned black and I waited a few days and then raked it all up. I'll replant with grass seed this fall after I rake up the thatch, etc. I had to apply a second time about 6 weeks later, but moss is persistent and just awful. I live in a high rainfall area, so once it got started, the moss just seeped into all parts of the yard. This product was very helpful.

Effective Moss Killer with Shipping Considerations
2023-06-20:Added in some pictures of the bag, content %, and instructions / spreader settings. Another added note, make sure to blow / sweep any of the material that is on stone / concrete / wood as the iron can stain those surfaces when wet. I use a handheld leaf blower to just blow everything back onto the lawn when using, then watering in afterwards.ORIGINAL:With a recent sale on Amazon, I bought 4 bags of this Moss killer, and despite some initial shipping issues, I find the product to be effective in combating moss growth in my yard. After a couple of mishaps with damaged shipments, the third order finally arrived in good condition thanks to Amazon's prompt resolution.The shipping problems I experienced were likely due to the carriers involved, as each order was handled by a different one. However, I must commend Amazon for their excellent customer service in promptly addressing the issues and resending the product without any hassle. If you can find this product at a local big-box store for a similar price, it might be worth considering to avoid potential shipping complications but due to the price being nearly half of the big-box store, I took the chance.In terms of performance, I have been using Lilly Miller Moss Out for years to tackle moss growth in a specific area of my lawn that lacks full sun exposure and cannot be easily adjusted for watering. It is important to note that conducting a soil test is recommended to identify the root cause of moss growth, which is often associated with a pH imbalance. To address this, pelletized lime can be used to correct the pH and create an environment less conducive to moss growth. The Moss Out granules effectively kick-start the process of eliminating moss, preparing the ground for pH correction with lime.Overall, I would recommend Lilly Miller Moss Out Lawn Granules. Its effectiveness in combating moss growth, especially in shaded areas with pH imbalances, makes it a valuable tool for maintaining a healthy lawn. Just be mindful of potential shipping issues and consider purchasing from a local retailer if the price is comparable. Despite the initial setbacks, Amazon's responsive customer support made the overall experience relatively smooth, requiring only a chat session to resolve the problems.
