Is the grass height hindering flow of water, is there standing water, is it over 12 inches (which is really high for a grass ordinance) etc...

They know there are mosquitoes in all grass, but is the grass the reason there are more of them. Is it aiding growth in population etc..

These new neighbors being "habitual offenders wherever they go" is only 1 of about 648 reasons that their lawn could be long.

Instead of playing psychic for a day, he should just go and ask them. You'll be amazed at what human contact can reveal.

more often than not, they're repeat offenders IMO.

But yes, talking to them would be the easiest course of action.

Yeah, that makes sense. He said shin high. Doesn't sound like its quite a foot tall. Only one way to find out. Take a tape measure over there. :D

I ended up mowing their back yard, and when he came over to apologize/thank me I just told him,"You just moved in, you are busy, this is our way of saying 'Welcome to the Neighborhood'". We proceeded to have a beer together.


The guy never let his lawn grow high again. People are strange, they would rather please a person they like/respect then apease an asshole next door.

That's what I was going to say.

This happened last year to an old lady that lives next door to Bugeaters moms house. She had flier's all over the hood. Stating she would pay $1000.00 cash for any tips on who did the ROUNDUP to her yard. It wrecked the old bags yard.

Just spray roundup on it. They'd probably thank you. :p

No seriously just call the code enforcer. Let us know what happens.

Dude, when I was in Warrensburg (outside city limits and no one gave a crap), we didn't either. That was the last time we mowed - 2006. Now we live in a nice neighborhood, and believe it or not, that shit hasn't gone more than a week and a half without being mowed.

So shut it.

Build a giant lower-case "t" out of wood, put it in their yard, and light it on fire. They will understand that the "t" stands for "time to mow".

Well that's too bad,I kinda hate it for the "old bag". My neighbors only mow when I do and its kinda funny cause sometimes I'll wait a extra day or so just to see if they'll mow first.It never fails though,as soon as I start cutting,here they come.

It is wierd how many people think they are good people, but rarely do the right thing. Instead of being an asshole, give them one of your playboys (the one with the least amount of Jizz) and Poisen's "look what the hat dragged in) tape. You will be surprised at the amount of awesome comes out of being awesome
