Why do we need to rake/bag up leaves? Wont they biodegrade on their own?

If you’re using your yard for any recreation then leaves will stick to your shoes and it will be a mess when you come inside. Also I’ve found that too big piles of leaves will not be good for the lawn underneath, they’re only good in moderation.
But you absolutely do not need to rake, they’ll be just fine and gone by next June at the latest, depending on your local temperatures and snow/rainfall. You can also mulch or collect them with the lawnmower, small amounts of mulched leaves will be good for fertilizing the soil.
