Disclosed is a combination safety device and gutter protector for use with a ladder which is leaned at an angle to the wall of a house or the like, the upper ends resting laterally secure against a relatively narrow extending surface of the device and not against the outer edge of a gutter installed on the eave of a roof. The device of the invention serves to prevent slippage or other undesirable movement of a ladder when it is placed in position for use and is a support means supporting the ladder and its load directly to the fascia board of a house, rather than to the gutter. The device is an “H”shaped support means attached to a gutter backwall and to a fascia board and is composed of two spaced apart stanchions and a crossmember, each of the stanchions having a longitudinal passageway thereto and an elongated spike disposed in the passageway. One end of the spike protrudes through the gutter backwall and is embedded in the fascia board. A terminal portion of each stanchion and a free edge of said crosspiece protrudes beyond the free edge of the gutter forming a recess in which a ladder may be disposed.
