Clean your Gutters the Easy Way (Reader Tip)

The Gutter Spatula

“I thought I’d share with your readers this little brainstorm I had while cleaning my gutters last weekend … I’ve discovered the best gutter cleaning tool ever—a spatula! I used an old plastic spatula to remove the leaves and roof muck from the gutters, and it worked great! It doesn’t scratch up the gutters, plus you can cut the plastic to fit into the tight spaces and shapes of your gutter system. Home stores should start selling these things in the outdoor section!”
