I've got a load of moss on my roof that is clogging up the drains and causing water to overflow.

What's the best way to get rid of this? Is it something I can do from the top of a ladder with a hose or pressure washer and suitable chemicals or does it require someone to get up there and physically remove it? If the latter then who? Seems like getting a roofer to do that would be expensive, window cleaner? Someone else I haven't considered?

Anyone with a sufficiently long ladder.

You want to grab it out with gloved hands and obviously you don't want to be overstretching when doing that or you'll end up impaled on next door's patio furniture.

Ah, it's not the stuff in the gutters that's the issue (well it is but that's not too bad to get rid of) it's all the stuff growing on the roof that I'm not sure how to get rid of.
