[quote=Anonymous]OP, I wfh year-round in a neighborhood of 5000 square foot lots, and I share your frustration. There is nothing more concentration-breaking than that high-pitched whine. Often there are two or three going at once, and no sooner does the quiet return than another crew pulls up a few houses away. In the fall, especially, it is a daily annoyance. Those of you who use mow-and-blow services, please consider how often you really need every leaf and twig blown from your lawn (and sidewalk and street in front of your house—in my observation, these guys get a little obsessed.). If your neighbors’ sanity is not a persuasive reason, then please consider the good you would be doing for the environment by instructing your yard service to use the blowers only as needed. Us wfh-folks, parents with babies who nap, and—now—parents who are trying to work and homeschool at the same time thank you profusely. [/quote]
