RRP said:I have a slightly different problem. There's a patch of lawn about 10 x15 feet that belongs to my elderly neighbors. They use a couple guys who mow their lawn with 2 of those huge zero turn rider Toros and they race all the time at flat out speed. Thing is this patch would take a little maneuvering. Instead they just don't mow it. I've talked as best as I can to explain it, but since I don't speak Spanish and they don't speak English I end up just mowing it and cleaning the leaves in the fall.
Do you think their English would improve if you stopped mowing it? Do you think your neighbors speak spainish to communicate with them? -

Peculiar problem Fish. Husband and brown liquor might be best approach. If that doesn’t change crazy ladies behaviors then your small fence should be done. You could always roll over a hummer into their house and force them to move...Sandy Springs & Dawsonville Ga

Start talking to them like this. Reach out and grab the crazy crown.

If you don’t like it just mow it! On the other hand if my neighbor came over and started doing my yard work I would sit on the porch and watch with a cold one!South of Columbus, Ohio.

My neighbor once made a comment about me not having anything to look at other than my poorly maintained grass. I gave her permission to plant some stuff and maintain my lawn, but she declined. She planted a row of lilacs, so she can't see my grass and my newly planted and struggling to stay alive mini lilacs anymore. She also plants some kind of flower that grows up my chainlink fence, with is kind of neat. As long she takes care of them, I don't care.

This just sounds like a marriage dispute. I think its funny he keeps calling his wife his neighbor. Never thought of that reference. You just need to plant more eggs than trees. Or use the trees as charcoal for your egg furnaces.

Go to the store, buy concentrated round up. Grab your drill and a 1/2 inch drill bit. Also, pick up night vision goggles, because you don't want to do this while your neighbor was watching.
Go from tree to tree, drilling holes as close to root line as you can. Take round up concentrate and dump into drill holes. Two to three holes in a smallish tree should do the trick.
