Growing up, I used to watch my dad use the leaf blower at least twice a week. He’d clear the dust that accumulated on the porch or blew the leaf clippings from the sidewalks after he mowed the yard. I never understood why he did it so much. Wouldn’t the wind just blow the leaf clippings away? And then I bought my house – and I understood.
Many homeowners take pride in the place they live and that includes keeping it free and clean of dust, dirt, leaves, pinecones, twigs, and other debris. Unfortunately, a broom just can’t handle the job the way a leaf blower can.
