Its just a copper strip you fix to the ridge tiles. It works on the same principle as copper coating boats to stop the green growing - copper sulphate, all in the link below

Use Swift & Sure safe algae & moss killer, spray on all effected surface when spores are killed the green moss will turn a orange/ brown colour pw or scrape debrie/soil muck from roof, then invest in copper strip.
