    Been using foam earplugs for a long time. Here lately using ear muffs along with earplugs. Got to do something as I can't go on like this.

    How old is your current mower? This is a gasoline powered unit? If yes, could a new muffler be something to consider? Would certainly lower the noise and probably not expensive.

    Mower is seven (7) years olde. Muff is fine. Might be vibration. Weedeater and bike don't seem to bother me.
    Think I'll hire somebody to mow the dang thing.

    No I don't. Winter is supposed to be cold with at least some snow. Snow was a rarity. Also don't miss the melt your face off summers either. And those were getting worse. While I'm at it don't miss the traffic and fifty thousand (50000) people every where you go.
    Tgere I go with negative waves again lol
