Leaf Blower for House Cleaning

There are times when I have opened my doors and used the leaf blower to blow out dirt and dust from my kitchen, living room, and car. This sounds like a guy thing (I am not a guy), but it really feels uber-clean and you feel like a cleaning superheroine in the process.

A note about vacuums and leaf blowers, in general - wear hearing protection. If you have only headphones and cotton or a rag, even tying a scarf around your ears is better than nothing. I work with patients who have lost their hearing, and noise history always contributes to hearing loss and tinnitus. This goes for lawn mowers and generators, too!
