I put some on the pub gutters 10 or so years back, still there now, don't think they were "original" hedgehogs though, eBay prob. Work well. Cheers, D. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ken's Deputy 4,456 Posted October 17, 2021 Author Report Share Posted October 17, 2021 I'm getting some, mate! Back gutter's rammed with leaves as I type this. Ground's terribly rocky and uneven out there. Sloping too. I'm well onto borrowed time, what with all this annual, hanging off a ladder with a rod, caper. I'm way too old to be continuing to do stupid and very dangerous things that could end extremely badly. It scares me to fukking death, quite frankly! I'll leave those leaves where they are, till I have some of this stuff to put in behind them. Last fukking time I'll be up there then. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
saluki bouy 633 Posted October 17, 2021 Report Share Posted October 17, 2021 We clean gutters regularly and if customer has them in we just take them out you want gutters to run freely and they just clog them up get wire mesh stick on down pipes to prevent any mass going down and get them cleaned every nov and March 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ken's Deputy 4,456 Posted October 17, 2021 Author Report Share Posted October 17, 2021 I've put mesh cups in my down pipes, SB. It's just that I have this fukking great ash tree dropping its shit in this one gutter. Every year. It fills up about as fast as I can rake it out. I'd be for ever paying some fukker to be cleaning it, again. Everything else is easily accessed too. It's just this one, miserable stretch. It's a perfect storm.
