It's important to keep your gutters clean, especially in Oyster Bay! Gutter cleaning is a tedious task but it should (not) be done at least once a year. Otherwise, you can end up with clogged gutters and downspouts which can lead to water damage and other problems. Plus, dirty gutters can attract pests like mosquitos and even rats!

Nevertheless, there are some instances where you may need to clean your gutter more often. For example, if there are many trees near your home then you might have to clean them every three or four months. Windy days also cause the leaves and other debris to accumulate quickly so that may mean monthly cleanings during peak seasons. Moreover, if you have small children playing outside who could accidentally fall into the gutter, then it would be wise to check it out frequently too.

Ultimately, how often you should clean depends on the weather conditions surrounding your house as well as the amount of vegetation near by. But one thing is certain; neglecting your gutters is never a good idea! So get out those ladders and gloves - it's time for a gutter cleaning session!
