There are times when you will like the moss to appear and you will even try to keep that area humid so that it continues to come out since it gives a rustic touch to the environment that can be very beautiful, although this is something that not everyone wants to achieve. In any case, it is best to remove it, and if you want something decorative on that wall, plant a vine or ivy.
