It seems that people cannot get any peace any more in the summer time when it comes to super loud noise generated
by those awful gas powered leaf blowers, how do we stop them.
 
I hate the noise also, but they really do the job on decks, driveways covered with leaves and pine needles. I do not own one.

Stop them? I have three and start running them between or at 7:00 to 7:30am every morning.

I run an Echo leaf blower, and it is considerably more quiet compared to my neighbors. You can hear his from the other side of the neighborhood. That being said I start working at 7:30 in the morning so neighbors are probably mad at me, not him.

As far as being loud, I think the four strokes or 4 Mix engines are quieter than the two stokes. Being quiet doesn't have anything to do with the make of the blower as much as the size of the engine. A good size back pack blower can have twice the engine or more than a hand held.

Also my blower is the low noise model, so it is quieter than most (64 db). But still has plenty of power for a handheld.
