A profitable solution to clogged curtain drains ?

I recently did a gutter cleaning job in an area with abundant pine needles. All the downspouts of said job connected up to a curtain drain, a few of which were clogged at the junction where downspout & curtain drain meet.



I am interested in helping people avoid this problem since it seems like such an easy fix. Of course having gutter strainers at the top of the downspout hole are a good preventative measure, but insufficient for a house that gets tons of debris in the gutter.



I found these on the internet:

Aquabarrel(R) - Aquabarrel Rain Barrel: Downspout Filter Leaf Eater - Aquabarrel.com



They even have in-line ones like this:

Aquabarrel(R) - Aquabarrel Rain Barrel: Downspout Filter Slim Line - Aquabarrel.com



Seems like there would be a big demand for these products if they were marketed, and people knew about them.



I wrote a blog about it a year ago and got at least 5-6 calls per month from people wanting to buy it. None of the people were local and I didn't want to get into a small scale shipping business so I deleted the blog.



I'm thinking I could have a good gutter cleaning add on.



Thoughts ?

@Pioneer Services , you live in pine needle country right ?
