I tend to mow shouting at the bees and froglets. The bees go mad on the buttercups and I have to hit them a rattle to move them on. The froglets can go in the deeper ruts as I never cut it too short. I just don't like to think how many I've murdered.
Well ... all I did was ask about a possible tool ... that this should prompt so many to rave on the defensive and rant on the attack is an "excellent" indication of the fragile psyches out there in need of nourishment and growth ... but probably out of reach of even a miracle. No wonder we are in such deep trouble on these fair isles ... Good luck!
P.S. Thank you Hogweed for actually addressing the question ; trouble is brushes tend to push a lot of debris deeper into the turf. Thank you also to Dr Beecham : you received some abuse and I apologize for that. But wait until they need you, they won't abuse you then!
There have been helpful suggestions - several of them - but you've always got an excuse for not using it - so you're just going to have to carry on bending over and picking the stuff up then aren't you.

Punkdoc, correct me if I'm wrong, but I had understood that modern medical practice is to treat the patient in an holistic way, rather than regard him or her as an assemblage of discreet parts to be treated without much regard to the whole, as used to be the case with some surgeons many years ago.
I think that is a rather neat analogy with good gardening practice, where leaves on a lawn may well have a role to play in the well being of the whole garden.

Yes, I'm having to mow slowly to let the bees move on from the clover. Bees love clover, hence clover honey!
Ooh, red soldier beetle, how fab - they eat aphids - yessss, back of the net!
It must be a close relative of the pita
Very close

I don't understand your point Phillipe.
A number of solutions have been offered, you did not like them, fair enough.
I fail to see how whether people pick leaves off the lawn is a sign of the impending break down of our society.

We've got lots of worms in our garden ... They take the leaves underground.
