Observations of many dim galactic nuclei in local universe give good estimation of gas density and temperature at Bondi radius. If we assume the black hole accretes at Bondi accretion rate and radiates at efficiency of low-luminosity hot accretion flow, the predicted nuclei luminosity can be significantly higher than observations. Therefore, the real black hole mass accretion rate in these sources may be significantly smaller than the Bondi value. Active galactic nuclei (AGN) feedback may be responsible for decreasing black hole accretion rate to values much smaller than Bondi rate. We perform two-dimensional simulations of low angular momentum accretion flow at parsec and sub-parsec scales around low-luminosity active galactic nuclei (LLAGNs). We take into account the radiation and wind feedbacks of the LLAGN. The cross section of particle-particle interaction can be several orders of magnitude larger than that of photon-particle interaction. Therefore, we find that for the LLAGNs, effects of radiation feedback in decreasing black hole accretion rate are small. However, wind feedback can effectively decrease the black hole mass accretion rate. Due to the decrease of accretion rate, the black hole luminosity can be decreased by a factor of $\sim 33-400$. The results may be useful to explain why many galactic nuclei in the local universe are so dim.
