Please make them stop. Why are they still legal? My neighbor has been using a mower, weed eater, and leaf blower for 5.5 hours. Nobody else ever notices the noise but my auditory sensitivities make me want to claw my skin off.

I tried some a long time ago that were supposed to be noise canceling. Never could get them to work. Might need to try a few from the post here, including something like you posted with just the band. (Can't see because blocking Amazon).

Ahh, mine are definitely not noise cancelling. I'm not putting up with much noise at night, it's just the slightest sound from neighbours (which most people wouldn't even hear) will stop me sleeping. Fortunately it's usually silent here at night and I only need them sometimes!
