i've tried a few solutions with varying degrees of success.
the snap in screens that go over the top of the gutter works as advertised but install was tedious because you have to work it under each hanger. over time they begin to shift and become visible from the ground making it an eyesore, so i i ended up climbing the ladder anyway, only now i went up every 4 feet or so instead of just by the downspout where leaves accumulated.
i've also used the foam pieces that go into the gutter. far far easier to install. it's advertised as uv stabilized but lasted about one california summer before it began to deteriorate from the sun. removing it was painful because it would just break apart every time i pulled on it.
now i just use a shopvac or leafblower to clear it out ......
