A gutter protector for keeping debris and insects out of the interior of a gutter comprises a plurality of flexible elongated gutter protector members formed of a porous open-cell foam, the foam incorporating therein an anti-microbial agent and a UV inhibitor. The members are formed in sections of predetermined length that are shaped to fit in predetermined gutter shapes. Each member has a recessed portion in a lower side that is spaced away from the gutter. The recessed portion is substantially isolated from the exterior of the protector member so as to permit water to flow unobstructed through the gutter without admitting insects to the interior of the recessed portion. For a conventional gutter shape, the gutter protector desirably has a generally right triangular cross section with a flat top and a tapered edge that fits under a front lip of the gutter.
