leave them leaves unraked

Or create leaf mold (a pile of sticks and leaves) in targeted areas of your yard/property that are ideal for breeding fireflies and other desired native insects/spiders. Especially if you live in an HOA community that requires reqular raking and can hide the leaves under bushes/shrubs/trees/garden beds as mulch.

Raking of leaves isn't really the problem so much as is the complete removal of leaves from the property & neighborhood (which also removes the nutrients from the local top soil).
