I stopped using my leaf blower after reading a study from UC Davis last week

The air quality readings near my house dropped by 40% in 5 days of just raking, and I'm curious if anyone else here has tried ditching gas yard tools altogether for the summer.

UC Davis actually found a 25% reduction in my area, not 40%.

Any chance you're looking at different timeframes than the UC Davis study? I've seen multiple versions of that data floating around and the numbers vary a lot depending on when you start counting.
