"They" put mufflers on cars and silencers on guns. Why can't someone make Leaf Blowers with silencers too?

    The principal purpose of leaf blowers is to annoy the neighbours. Silencers would defeat the purpose.

    Use a broom.

    That has to be one of the most irritating sounds.  I often think those little guys using them think of them as penis extensions.

    It would be nice.  Even with maximum ear protection, they're still loud.  I try not to use my leaf blower any more than I absolutely have to, so as not to annoy my neighbors (they aren't as thoughtful).

    Twice a month the Hemet streetsweeper comes around. Always on a Monday. So Jim does the leaf-blowing concert on Sunday afternoon.  A few of the neighbors have gardeners who show up periodically and they use leaf blowers as well. I wish they could sound like a harp or something ethereal! Thank you for your reply Shuhak! :)

    Well ya see my Jim keeps track of when the street sweeper sweeps our streets...twice a month. The day before he blows all the crap into the street by the curb. I don't mind leaves. He does. Thank you for your reply E and Happy Tuesday to thee! :)
