ABSTRACT:
An improved drain shield for eave gutters is provided in the form of screen sections adapted to be assembled in end-to-end relation along an eave gutter, such sections being of a width to overlie the gutter and first course of shingles and to extend under the second course of shingles for mounting purposes, such screen sections being formed of woven wire screening suitably having aligned square openings measuring approximately 1/4-inch on the side, each screen section being deformed intermediate its front and rear edges and at a location to align with approximately the middle one third of the first course of shingles to dispose one line of said square openings perpendicular to the plane of the screen section, the portion of the screen section overlying the gutter thereby being raised approximately 1/4-inch above the mounting portion, the perpendicularly disposed line of openings providing means for diverting water into the gutter while causing leaves and other debris to be carried over and discharged beyond the edge of the gutter.
