 Use rakes and brooms to loosen debris before blowing.
In dusty conditions, slightly dampen surfaces when water

 Conserve water by using power blowers instead of hoses for
many lawn and garden applications, including areas such
as gutters, screens, patios, grills, porches, and gardens.
 Watch out for children, pets, open windows, or freshly
washed cars, and blow debris safely away.
 After using blowers or other equipment, CLEAN UP!
