Are fall leaves toxic?
Awl --
You'd think so, the way homeowners/landscapers run around with leaf blowers getting rid of every single last one of them. Is eliminating leaves that important? What would happen if people *didn't* blow every leaf off their property? What I find strange is that people will blow leaves off of bare dirt -- seems to me you'd WANT leaves covering soil. http://www.dec.ny.gov/public/46613.html says that shredding leaves and covering the lawn with them is a good thing. Basically anything you do with leaves except burn them is OK -- leaves collected by landscapers eventually get composted by the municipality -- I think. Personally, I think my neighbors are just a little to fanatic with this leaf blowing thing -- jmo. -- EA |
