Hi, I am a housewife and have a basic question. We have a garden with an open drainage system (about 18 feet in length) at the end of the garden shared by terraced houses along the street. Should I covered the drain with perforated drainage cover? We have leaves and fruits falling from the trees in the surrounding areas that may clog the pipe. What is the minimum hole size?

Thanks.
