When cleaning the gutter ensure that you clean the entire part of the gutter and not just a fraction of it. Cleaning only a part of it will not be fruitful and you will again have to clean it up shortly.

Gutter screens work better than the gutter covers, which cannot stop flower buds and pine needles to get into the gutters. On the contrary, the slits and holes are capable of trapping the leaves by their stems.

Always ensure that you clean your gutter system during the spring and fall. This is the time when leaves and twigs block your downspout, so you are required to clean out your gutter at this time to avoid clogging.
