Rather than using a wind blower (or lawn mover, for you suburbanites) – Burn some calories & rake the leaves instead.
If you’re lucky enough to have land space, try reusing the decomposing leaves – they enhance native topsoil & vegetation, and prevent rain run-off. But if you’re landlocked (like me), get some biodegradable bags for your leaf booty.
