Q: How do I keep my icicle lights from tangling in the wind?

• <div><p>No one has figured out a perfect solution to this problem. Tying icicle lights down or adding weights to them can help, but it&rsquo;s a very time-consuming process and far from foolproof. If your winters are too windy, we suggest simply switching away from icicle lights to straight runs of non-dangling lights along the edge of your roof.</p></div>

Q: How many lights do I need for a 7-foot tree?

• <div><p>Christmas trees need about 100 lights per foot, so you would need 700 lights for a 7-foot tree. </p></div>

Q: Do you need gutters to hang Christmas lights?

• <div><p>In the Christmas days of yore, people braved winter weather to staple or tack their Christmas lights onto their rooftops or nearby surfaces like the fascia boards. Problems quickly emerged with that approach. Damage to the roof, even small marks from staples, provides entryways for moisture and similar issues that can hasten roof rot, wear, and associated leaks. Plus, some homes had tough fiber cement boards or other materials where staples and screws didn&rsquo;t work.</p></div>
