Is it ending on your floor because your gutter is full of moss?
-
When it rains moss soaks up all the water and them dumps it all in one place. If your roof isn't totally watertight you'll get leaks. Also in winter that water freezes and cracks your roof tiles. Which then leak in the spring.
TLDR Get rid of it. -
We get jackdaws on the roof picking through the moss looking for snacks. You always know when one's up there because there's a constant hail of mossy chunks

My roof has loads of moss on it, it's annoying as it ends up all over the floor when it rains.
What's the easiest way to get rid of this (my longest ladder will only get me to the gutters)? Would be willing to pay someone if it wasn't too pricey and they didn't knacker my roof but doesn't seem to be a thing (or I'm searching the wrong thing).
Also, opinion seems split whether leaving it to grow or removing it is worse for the roof. Anyone any ideas on that?
