Squirrels tear up the moss and throw it around. If I find it in time, I try to press it back into place, but most of it gets lost and dies. So don't worry too much about damage when you're collecting moss. Unless you're harvesting with a backhoe, you're probably doing less damage than the squirrels. Just try to stay under that bar and you'll be fine. Moss is designed to handle a certain amount of mayhem.
