I object to blowing the leaves and litter down the street or pulverizing it into fine dusty cloud. Rarely, do I see the gardeners accumulate the debris and haul it off.
Ban leaf blowers!
Wow, just wow. You will not ban them here.
Filled over 50 bags of leaves from my lawn last year. Using an electric leaf blower, that required 25 charges at 75 minutes apiece. I can do that as a casual gardener and I appreciate the lighter weight, but it would kill anyone in the business.
