D.I.Y. Gutter Guards for your Ladder! Only $1.25!

I made some special guards to protect our walls and gutters from getting scratched up when we use a ladder. They’re called “ladder guards” and I made them from a foam tube called a “pool noodle.” You can buy a pool noodle for a really cheap price at the Dollar Tree store.

It’s important to use something like ladder guards to protect the walls and gutters from getting damaged when you’re using a ladder. You also need to make sure the ladder is really steady and won’t fall over. You can put something soft between the ladder and the wall to keep them from touching directly. And you can use special covers for your shoes so you won’t slip. You should also keep the ladder away from any power lines so you don’t get hurt. Lastly, before you use the ladder, you need to check to make sure it’s not broken or damaged.

Pool noodles are made of a special foam that’s really lightweight and easy to bend. They’re usually made from something called “polyethylene” or “ethylene-vinyl acetate.” They’re often used in pools to help people float. They come in lots of colors and sizes, so they’re good for both kids and adults.

Using ladder guards like these might help the ladder stay in place and prevent it from slipping, but it depends on the type of surface you’re putting the ladder on.
