We did it in reverse I used a leaf blower that can be reversed to suck up leaves & shred them into the leaf bag.

I have old long leaf pine floors in my rental.

In one of my NH buildings I pay for pest control because it had termites at one point, and is on the river, so rodents are a problem.Salt and sand and shoveling and snow plow and grass mowing and leaf removal in the fall and broken faucets and torn screens and turnover costs per apartment and gutter clean out and roof shoveling and tree pruning and yada yada yada

The old standby family lawyer leafed through the RM document and  said "pay them the $150K or let them forclose, that will be $250 for the consult". 

they should mind their own business since those are not required. if you do install them, get Leaf Relief, about $2 per foot, but amazing!!!

I figured it was just a leaf or something so shook my foot a little as I looked down... come to find this baby squirrel just sitting on my shoe staring at me.

If a single leaf is in the gutter, the inspector will recommend hiring an arborist to determine if the tree near the home will cause any future issues.

We had a renovation of an old theater early 20s work with scupltured plaster and relief work and gold leaf.

Steve MightIf your eaves troughs are constantly overflowing, check the following:a) Are the troughs and downspouts clear of leaves and other debris {If you do not have a "leaf guard" / debris screen over the top opening of your eaves trough, now may be the time to add one};b) Are the troughs properly sloped towards the downspouts {with ages and winter damage, the often sag in the middle, so the water does not flow to the downspout};c) Are the troughs the correct size ... based on roof size and rainfall events {which are becoming more extreme}, perhaps your troughs and downspouts are simply being overrun and you should be increasing the size to 5 or 6";d) Are the troughs correctly mounted under drip edge of your roof ... it is not uncommon to see the edge of the roofing extend 50% or more of the way across the eaves trough - this will increase the likelihood of overrun;e) Do the downspouts drain to the drain tile or sewer line {this once common practice should be avoided for multiple reasons};f) Do the downspouts divert the water away from the foundation {this is unrelated to the troughs being overrun, but will be a cause of damage}.

.- Once HEPA vacuumed clean, an electric leaf blower will be used to raise as much of the remaining dust, mold, and spore as possible in order to allow the air scrubbers to remove them from the air.
