    This. I am SO sick of lawn mowers! My neighbor does the lawns once every single week. She will spend all day mowing it and using weed whackers etc. I am so sick of the noise! I don’t want to always be forced to wear my noise canceling earbuds. I want to hear the birds and the wind for god sake…

    Also, people driving slowly down the street with their car music so damn loud that you can hear/feel them coming 2 streets away because of the subwoofer…

      My neighbor does the lawns once every single week

      Until about a year ago I had neighbors on 2 sides of me who’d mow 1-2 times a week. Elderly retired neighbors who seemed to mow as their hobby. I subscribe to the No Mow May philosophy. I don’t mow until May because that’s about as long as I can get away with before my grass start’s getting too excited. I also mow every 2-3 weeks depending on the rate of regrowth to keep it reasonable but also not over-mow. Its a balancing act of what I can do for the environment without having to fight my neighbors, in-laws or city
