If leaf fall is heavy , it will smother your grass and it keeps the lawn wet and cool in the spring. Mow up light to medium amounts and let them decay , it is good for the lawn and saves raking. If you have a lot of leaves you may need to rake or mow several times.

It depends on how you feel about the situation and you would like your lawn to look ! I pick all the leaves up daily off my lawns with a long steel spike,once you get in to the habbit of doing it you will not have to rake up at all, it also depends on the size of your property, I have half an acre. The only reason I like to keep it this way is to get the sun on the grass. otherwise I end up having yellow patches all over, hope this is usefull
