I have a small manufacturing plant in my front yard I'm going to replace with a Red Oak. with the price of fuel anymore I thought it made more sense.

NO, they're tan colored, but they do have whisper mode. Can't hear them little suckers coming unless there's a few hundred swooping in.

My wife makes me wear a helmet all the time, so I'm not worried. I think it's lined with tinfoil?

Gary, just filled 3 5 gallon buckets with helicopters from the gutters. If they hadn't been soaking wet from all the rain yesterday it would have been 5 or 6 buckets.

I have to find some good gutter guards to keep the crap out of them. Getting too old to go up there every few weeks and clean out the latest crap that has fallen out of the trees.

Like I told you before,my yard was nothing compared to yours. I don't mind getting up on the roof,but I panic for the first few steps coming down the ladder. Last year I was stuck up there for about 30 minutes until a neighbor came home to help me down.

I have a tri-level, two roofs plus a screened in deck off our upstairs bedroom with a gutter on it. I have over a 150' of gutter and 20 different kinds of trees. Every week another tree decides it's going to drop some new crap in the gutters, I can't keep up with it. Actually I don't want to keep up with it, I have more fun things I could spend my time on.

I hadn't driven my car in a few days. And I was surprised that I still had those damn things stuck on the car after 15 miles on the e-way. It rained yesterday and I swear those things have superglue embedded in them somewhere.

Funny you should post this. I was up on the roof this evening cleaning out my gutters. Filled up a 5 gallon bucket with those things. Never saw them this bad.
