Hi folks, I was doing a gutter clean this evening and a large section had been overgrown with ivy and the homeowner had ripped it off but it has left behind the little parts that attach itself onto things (apologies for my biological terminology lol).
Does anyone have any ideas on how to remove this? Back in the morn to finish the job and I was thinking of a scraper but don't want to damage the paintwork and score into the aluminium.
Any help much appreciated!

When I first started out I took on a fascia/gutter job that was full of ivy. "Yes madam, of course I'll remove all of the ivy" says I. Never again. Absolute nightmare and I'd avoid if I was you!
