1. Why remove leaves from the lawn?

Electric leaf collecter

Although heaps of crispy leaves are lovely to scuffle through when out for a walk, they are less welcome on the lawn.


Why? Because the grass suffers and may even die if the layers of leaves are not removed. A dense smothering blanket of leaves blocks the light and air, especially once the leaves become sodden with rain.
