If your on a webhost, they often use the cPanel system, which has cron jobs build in. Go to the menu, or search for Cron Jobs and add one.

Use the line "php -q ScriptPath" (no quotes)

If you are on a linux system, look into setting up a cron job.

This will enable you to execute a php script that you specify at fixed time intervals.

You can possibly use cronjob in linux server to do a autotask to run the file once a day

In windows there is also a builtin program called schedule yask that does the same so u can possibly write command .bat file to run a php file in CLI php or id remember if possible to run a specific web adress blabla.com/mussl.php to accomplish what u need..
