leaf blower
Loud yard tool
A leaf blower is a motorized garden tool that produces a powerful stream of air to move fallen leaves, grass clippings, and other debris.
They come in handheld, backpack, and wheeled varieties, powered by gas engines or electric motors.
Leaf blowers are controversial in some communities due to noise pollution and dust dispersal.
The landscaping crew fired up their leaf blowers at seven in the morning.
