GutterBrush solves clogging from live oaks, small debris like locust leaves and pine needles

Below is an email reply to a GutterBrush gutter guard customer with clogging from Live Oaks and Small Debris like Pine Straw and Locust Leaves
The GutterBrush Customer wrote about clogging from Live Oaks
I live in Florida - surrounded by live oaks that shed small leaves a couple times per year - each leaf is between 1-2 inches long and .25 inches wide — do you have customers in Florida with similar experience —- seems like the little leaves can easily slip through —- do you have customer feedback from similar uses?
Here's the GutterBrush reply about how to stop clogging from small debris.
Hi Greg, Yes, I have spoken to customers about these for many years. I have been with GutterBrush for 8.75 years. Live oaks shed leaves that are about 1 to 2 inches long and about .25 inches wide. I think customers also refer to them as pin oaks. Small leaves like that are in the same category as locust leaves and pine needles. Larger leaves blow over a bit easier. These types of thin small leafs are a challenge for all gutter guards. Yes they will get stuck in the bristles, but if not inundated, they have airflow surrounding each and they really bake and decay in the sun and break down. GutterBrush works with small debris, even when its time for maintenance, water is still coming out of the downspouts. GutterBrush keeps it flowing because debris cant clump together to form a dam and debris can not clump together to flow and plug the downspout. People with small debris like pine needles and those that have lots of them go from 5 cleanings per year to maintaining GutterBrush once per year. If the trees hang directly over your house, you could need maintenance more than once per year. People call and buy for live oaks all the time. If skeptical, just get a little and try it out and see.
