Reply to comment by chairmanm30w in Leaf Blower Hell by chairmanm30w

I just commented on another post about a retiree who dual-wields gas powered leaf blowers down the street from us, but it looks like you already know him and have to deal with it...I'm so sorry. As a side note, there is a house across the street from him, and slightly down the road toward the cul-de-sac, that emits a very high pitched whine that my wife and I have noticed for years. Ever heard it/dealt with it? Most of the people in that neighborhood are too old to hear it and it drives us nuts when we walk by...

Honestly, it's validating to know we aren't alone in our struggles.

And that high pitched sound you're hearing is a deer deterrent device. It's so fucking obnoxious.

One piece of optimism that I try to keep in mind is that younger generations moving to this neighborhood seem to be much more sensitive to causing indiscriminate nuisances and preserving the naturalistic setting.
