I have never in my life had a problem with my neighbors. If they intrude on my privacy or property I inform them very nicely one time that I would appeciate it if they would quit. If it happens a 2nd time it's war and I always win.

In your situation you seem to have a neighbor who is a bit sketchy in the head or else an out and out asshole. Either way, the solution to your problem is to put up a 6 foot fence between your property and his. Problem solved. No amount of talking is going to change your neighbor and bringing in the police, which you could do because he is trespassing and vandalizing your property, may only lead to him flipping out.

A word to the wise.

1. Dig a 4 foot deep trench 3 feet from the property line on your side, fill with concrete.
2. Plant bamboo between concrete and property line.
3. Watch and laugh as it takes over his yard.

or

Get a bag of some ammonium nitrate (sometimes called urea). It's something like 46-0-0 IIRC. throw a few handfulls in large uneven arcs over his lawn and watch and laugh as it grows in funny.

Your idea of planting bamboo is far more evil than anything I would ever suggest. You are the spawn of the Devil himself.

Priceless.

By the way, voles and other critters will eat the bulbs of plants, neatly shearing off the stem and flower .. so just because you find a perfectly normal looking flower laying on the ground doesn't mean it was a human that cut it.

That said, your neighbor sure looks like the sort of inbred mentally unstable type who would do that sort of thing :)

The bamboo idea was great silverpig! :D

Oh, and since you have pics of him on your property now messing with your mom's bushes, call the cops.

But then again, you could always go over and ask him if he's circumcised. If he says "Yes", ask him if he'd like another cut. :D

Tell him that if he touches your mom's bushes again you'll raze his garden to the ground.
