This new fascination with products for roof cleaning is a symbol of our now constant need to sterilize everything.  Honestly, it’s not enough that your carpet, your car, your teeth, and your darn tile grout is clean – now you have to keep your roof clean, too.

Now, don’t get me wrong.  Those roof stains can look pretty darn nasty, especially when contrasted with a house that is in otherwise condition, so I can see the reason why it’s done.  I’m just saying that we as a society have become a bit paranoid when it comes to dirt, grime, stains, whatever.  Dirt is a part of life.  Heck, we all turn into dirt when we kick the can, right?  So why the fascination?

Anyway, just something I noticed.  Like I said, I can see the need for it if you’re trying to sell your house or get it spruced up, but I’m just saying that you know you live in a crazy world when people are scrambling to buy something as arbitrary as a roof cleaning product.
