I once made a section of PVC 4 inch pipe with an elbow to try cleaning
with my leaf blower. It was not all that great.


They make (or you can make your own) a U-shape attachment for a hose
which allows you to water jet debris out of the gutter. Not sure how
well it works, but in theory it appears as if it will do the job,
though could be messy splashing all around.


It rains down a mess on the user.
I get up on the roof and use a backpack blower.

Less manly men hire someone to do the job.



Several Halloweens ago wife asked 81 year neighbor about missing teeth
and he said he had fallen off the roof. I'm not a lot younger than
that. My roof climbing days are over. Better a mess coming down on me
than me coming down a mess.
