Do dead leaves raked onto gravel roads do damage to the roads? i have always been told that leaves left on gravel roads will cause them to erode as well as cause a mucky mess as rain and car travel mush them up? does anyone have a clear answer if leaves left on gravel roads actually do any damage to the roads? thanks in advance.

• No they don%26#039;t. The leaves will decay on the ground or on a gravel or asphalt road. You have to remember that leaves are organic just like grass. This is where we get our top soil. It%26#039;s from the decay of any organic material. Like a compost heap that gardeners keep. Them being placed on the gravel will only cause them to basically get ground up quicker and be blown or washed away. Don%26#039;t Worry. 20% 1 Vote
