It also works great when you have a horse that does not want to do circles in the round pen. After the second or third time all you have to do is rattle it.
Good thing neither of you live near me because if I saw you do that, I would naturally have to fill the shotgun with pellets, insert it up your behind, and pull both triggers.
Id just address it with the landlord. Fences suck, fencebuilding sucks, and they are an eyesore. I think building one after 1 encounter is a bit extreme. Give it time...maybe after his lease is up, they'll move. If not, people can be coherced to move.
Id just hate to see you have to spend the money and alter your property because of this guy.
Have you tried knocking on their door? Im sure if they ignore you outside of the home they surely wont open up, but it might be a good way to know for certain. Either way i think its weird that he would even want to mow into your space and create more work for himself.
Put up the fence, and call the landlord and tell them why you are doing it, and even though that's not so bad, the next renters may be worse, so a fence now will save trouble in the future.
My husband is going to put up fence in the spring going to cost 1400.00 to do just that that side of the yard . Thank you all I will be calling landlord if he does it again . I really don't need problems from them so we are going to let it go .Landlord knows we are going to put up fence and offered to pay half only for 100 ft of it . planned the fence for awhile now just trying to get the money together.
Just wish he was nice i think i got upset cause how he acted when i tried to talk to him and let him know that it was my yard and my kids stuff he was hitting with his mower . All I need is him getting hurt and suing me cause he is on my property .
I can also say when I have a cook out he will not be invited along with the other neighbors .
He may not be a "bad" neighbor, but just doesn't realize where the property line is.
Some men do not respect the views/knowledge of women. (speaking from experience here, my father is one) Our property has been fenced since we bought it. There was a HUGE land dispute that we were not aware of until we were 2 days from closing escrow, so we went through the surveying and fencing our property to keep it from being a problem later. Our neighbor (used loosely, as we are on 8 acres) is NOT a bad neighbor but he views women as helpless creatures that can't fend for themselves. I'm a strong, independent woman and I do a lot of work that most "old school" men would have a fit over. I have told my husband that I will not deal with him because he does not respect my opinion and will prompt any discussion with "have (husbands name) call me. I find him incredibly degrading and after so many years of having my father not respecting me because I'm a woman, I am not dealing with it anymore. I've always helped my husband with projects and he made me build my 2nd coop so I would know how to build if something ever happened to him. My DH understands and does not put me in situations where I have to deal with him. (and he knows that I'll get ticked off and tell this neighbor to go pound sand)
" Some men do not respect the views/knowledge of women". This may be factual, but it is still not acceptable. I can't believe that anyone would find that acceptable, and I am a 70 year old, crotchety old guy.
. This guy's behavior when trespassing on your property is unacceptable. Plain and simple.
