When I moved in, I told my neighbor I only mow my yard once every 2 weeks. Something I read that said it would help the bees. He’s done the same to match. We also have lightning bugs now, which I didn’t notice the first year.
Are you supposed to do it more? When I lived with my parents and had access to a yard that's about how much we did it (cause it was annoying to do it more)
Some people mow twice a week. Lawn is basically their hobby.
Is your neighbor Hank Hill by any chance?
If Hank Hill was my neighbor he would probably ask if he could take care of my yard just so he wouldn't have to look at it.
