We do one foreclosed home that is always full of trash toys shoes.
I kick the toys and shoes into the road.
I mow in a circle pile up the trash in the middle of the yard. It's getting kinda big.
About 10 years ago I was visiting my inlaws in AL. We were there for about a week. The grass needed cutting so I got out their little Craftsman rider, what a POS. I started cutting the front yard and by the time I get to the road I smell something rotten. Every time I get to the road it stinks like rotten meat. I finnish the yard in front of the house and move on to the grass on the side of the driveway, the narrow piece between the drive and the neighbors yard. When I get to the part of the yard where the driveway meets the road I see the biggest animal leg I've ever seen in my life. I stop to look at it and everyone comes out of the house to see and are shocked at the size of it. I didn't know what animal it was from. The inlaws calls the cops and the cops are shocked to. The cops called somebody and the guy says its a front leg from a lion. They ask it anyone has a lion in the area and we all look at each and I say I'm from out of town and don't know sh-t. The guy the cops call bagged it up and put it in his truck and left. I've pick up trash, cloths, shoes, a chair, just about anything that people will carry in the back of a truck from lawns over the years but that was a first for me. A front leg from a lion in my inlaws yard.

Carpenter bee nests.
that's crazy did you get stung?
I mulched a door mat a couple weeks ago. it killed the engine and I had a few choice words but all is good.
I got stung several times, but I always carry bee spray in my truck and the next day I came back and sprayed all the ground nests, then I mowed again today and no more bees, they are dead and all gone. I recommend everyone here carry bee spray, we will run into them here in the landscaping business sooner or later.
Several years ago I mulched a door mat with a weed eater mower, and surprisingly the mower wasn't harmed at all. Still have it, trashed the motor, still have the deck. Its sitting in my "Mower Junkyard", full of ZT's, ride on's, push mowers, snowblowers, and anything else power equipment and a shed full of engines and a shed full of parts.
And mower deck piles that will be scrapped soon
