Yes, moss can be dangerous for your roof if left in place to grow without treatment. The moss soaks up and holds moisture.

Additionally, a patch of thick moss may draw insects and birds, which could damage the roof. Thick moss could block the roof’s drainage system. Water then may back up after a rainstorm and cause further damage that could eventually lead to roof repair expenses or the cost of roof replacement.
