How to strip (rooted) moss of driftwood?

[ralliart12]

Hi fellows. May I know the most effective, e.g. leave no traces, can work on uneven surfaces, etc., method of removing moss that has rooted on pieces of driftwood? I suppose even boiling the entire piece of driftwood again may not necessary mean the moss will drop off on its own...

Any ideas fellows? Personally, I would have performed the following in sequence:

1. cut any existing threads & rinse the entire branch in water
2. boil the entire branch in water (to soften any "bonds")
3. Use brush/toothbrush to "scrape" any remaining bits

But of course, I welcome more effective suggestions.
