Clearing the Maywood gutters in late autumn prevents most of the damage the first storm would otherwise cause. We see it on Maywood roofs every week. Trimming back branches over a Maywood roof removes the debris that holds moisture against the covering and shortens its service life. Realistically, moss on a shaded Maywood slope should be treated rather than scraped, since scraping takes the granules with it.
