I have my My Doctor-it in Roofology from reading 500 roof posts and completing 10 paid jobs while being insured.

I make them tell me. I ask them a bunch of questions about mold, mildew, fungus etc...and ask them what they think would kill it. Pretty much 100% of them say bleach. They just don't know what else goes into the recipe. That's where I draw the line and leave the mystery. Most folks who call don't really even care. That's why they are calling. They want somone else to clean it.
We did however get a call last summer from a guy who started trying to clean his own with a pump up sprayer. After taking a crack at it and falling a few times he figured he would let us finish the other 5500 sq ft. Here is a picture. You can see where he started...He said never again. LOL... It actually took us 2 1/2 coats to eat through the black mold on his roof. That and we got caught in 2 rain storms in the middle of it. You can see where above the front doorway got rinsed by the rain already after the third coat.
