to rake them. My lawn gets so deep, when you drive the lawn mower over

Andy comments:

I understand what you mean. However, the trick may be to mow
more often, before the leaves build up to that level, rather than wait
and try to do it all at once....

I my back yard is heavily populated with oak, and I get LOTS of
leaves. However, my lawn tractor mulches them effectively,
especially if they are dry, and they just disappear in a couple
days.... The technique may not work everywhere, but it works
well in North Texas in an oak forest .....

Andy in Eureka,

Most of my trees are sycamore and all the leaves fall at once. These leaves
are so bit that the mower gets overwhelmed.
