I had several decks, walkways, and steps, all pressure treated, and some areas subject to a lot of dripping from trees, and I used the "SAB1" method of a bristle brush and elbow grease, plus I used a garden hose with adjustable nozzle to wash away the debris. I did this each early summer, and it worked well. The garden hose is not so aggressive it damages the wood, but, at the same time, it does wash away debris and leaves the deck looking good.

(I have to laugh at this post - one question, multiple, multiple answers.)
