How do you unclog a gutter?

If there is a significant blockage of leaves and debris, many homeowners don gloves so they can reach in and pry out handfuls of gunk. 

If you choose to do this, it’s important to take the proper precautions like having a sturdy ladder, someone to hold the ladder, and protective gloves and eyewear. 

Pressure washers, garden hoses, and plumbing augers can also be used, but you need to be careful not to damage the gutters or injure yourself while using them.
