Probably not legal no matter where you live, so NOT recommended:

Wrap bundles of eight red flares in electrical tape with an old style ticking alarm clock taped the outside of each. Place near doors, on car, near mailbox, and in lawn. Wait across the street patiently, with a wincing look on your face and an index finger in each ear. 😛
 
He removed it yesterday for a few hours to charge it, it's battery operated apparently. As far as I know it's still off but I'll check in the morning. He turned the frequency up to 19 or something ridiculous like that.
 
Freeze some roundup in ice cube trays, and then toss them out on his lawn at night. See what he has to say about his nice lawn then.

You could replace the batteries.:evil:

Or delibrately cause the batteries to short and FUBAR the mosquito that way. Probably really easy to do at night....
 
Have someone with kids move into your house and stay there. Call cops to complain that device is affecting kids (noise complaint).

Seriously, even if the cops can't hear it they know full well how that device works and the extent of its annoying range. But if your local authorities are they stupid, then God be with you

I seriously doubt there's anything LEGAL the OP can do about the "mosquito", since IF most adults can't hear it, it's not gonna be considered to be a nuisance issue.

But won't someone please think of the children???:Q

The OP just needs to get someone's mom to complain that her darling little children are suffering permanent hearing damage due to the crotchety old man down the street.
 
Petty revenge won't do anything, I think.

I say you play by the rules, and get the law on your side. Nothing he can do if there's a court ordering him to take it down for causing a public nuisance.
 
Find some way to open it up and break it inside. He can't tell from the outside that it's broken and if only young people can hear it, then how would he know it works?

Ornery, why do you have a different account (especially one called Pikachu)?

And your original account is still active?

😕

Not that I disagree, but how did you figure that out?
 
Attrition works well. You just wait 16 years and he'll be dead.

the future is now, old man
