Understanding the cause of clogged gutters and downspouts has everything to do with where you live. Homes located in Soquel up toward the summit experience a lot of pine trees and pine needles. Homes in the Aptos, Rio Del Mar, La Selva Beach, and even Corralitos often have large amounts of eucalyptus trees, known for clogging gutters and downspouts. Homes located in Boulder Creek, Ben Lomond, Felton and Scotts Valley will most likely experience both. Santa Cruz as a whole is just blessed with beautiful mountains and lots or green trees. Having stated the obvious, you would be shocked at how many things other than foliage cause clogs and gutter cleaning systems to fail each year. As a professional gutter cleaner here in Santa Cruz for over a decade now, I have seen some amazing things. Here is a small list of things that clog both gutters and downspouts. Toys, like Frisbees and balls. Animal dung, mainly Cat and Raccoon. Bird Nests, often with eggs. Growing plants and often small trees. This occurs when gutters are full of dirt and receive seed blown by the wind and or deposited by birds get planted. Of course the rain waters the seed and suddenly your gutters look like planter boxes.
