What would be the best way of stopping my neighbours children climbing on my garden wall.Would a trellis work?
I am always asking them to keep off the wall along with my own kids. I need to stop them but not sure the best way without cutting down all my light into the garden. Once on the wall they then run across the shed roof, I am so fed up with it. So is my neighbour she is constantly telling them off too.
As i would want to attach to top of wall what would be best way to attach something?
Any ideas appreciated.
Answers:
Try an anti vandal paint. maybe just put it on the shed roof. Its black and sticky and yuckky !! One dose of that and they wont be back. AND its harmless
why dont u talk to there mom?
razor wire ( top the wall with half round clay roofing tiles comes in a variety of widths and almost impossible to walk on )
a bear trap
call the police? I dunno, maybe you can put an alarm system there or something.
get a dog!!
SUPER SOAKERS, UM, STINK BOMBS, DONT FORGET THE CLASSIC PAINT BALL GUN, EVEN THE COPS, I MEAN ITS UR PROPORTY
Electric fence
BB Gun.
If you put up a trellis they may try to climb it and really get hurt on it. I would suggest that you move the shed so they can't get on top of it.
Call the police for trespassing. That way if there is any damage you have it documented with the police already that you've had problems with these children.
my fav
an electric fence seems to even keeps the birds off the wall
NO! trellis makes it easier! Get some metal spikes.
Beat the crap out of them every time you catch them.
you could electrify the roof top.
you could dig a huge pit and put spikes in it inside the shed and then weaken the roof so the fall in.
all of these are very good ideas.
Rottweiler?
Pitbull, Rottweiler, Doberman.. any of these 3 should scare the little bastards away!
Well I sugest 2 things!
1. You can complain to the neighbours parents and ask them very kindly if they wouldn't mind telling their children not to climb up the wall. and Try to bribe them not to (chocolate no TV..)
2. Put prickly pointy plants on top or put a part of a fence on top so once they get pricked no more climbing.
electric fence? barb wire? just kidding, a trellis would work or you could plant dwarf holly bushes around your garden, that would keep kids out but it might keep you out too, they have spiky leaves
Barbed wire? Some kind of thorny vine?
Start with your own children. Who is in charge? You or them? Quit telling them and MAKE them stop it. Punish them if they do it again so that they will understand that you mean what you say. If they thought you truly meant it, they would not keep doing it. Ground them, take something away from them, do something so that they will learn the consequences of their behavior. Parents are doing their children an horrible disservice by allowing continued bad behavior. What would happen to you if your boss had to keep telling you over and over and over to no avail. You'd get fired! Wake up and raise your children! Quit letting them run you. I guarantee if they stop, so will the neighbor's kids.
Barbed Wire!
Barbed wire or shards of broken glass will keep them off.
Nothing is more effective than a good thrashing though!
LITTLE BASTARDS!!
I know some of the countries down in South America lay some wet mortar and then install broken glass and spikes in it.
Considering some of the answers you've received to your post, I think you'll get more helpful and intelligent advice for your garden wall problem from a Home Depot or Orchard Supply Hardware.
bit of cement mix spread along wall and as its setting stick broken glass into it...sounds harsh but it might work
electrify it
The best way would be to get the neighbors to gain control of their children. If the children do not mind their parents, the children are out of control. The same may be true of your family.
Some ideas to stop this might be:
1. Have an attorney send a letter to your neighbor.
2. Call the police.
3 Take your neighbor to small claims court.
4. Punish your children for disopbeying you.
a. spank them
b. take away their cell phones
c. take away their computers
d. take away the TV in their room
c. take away all electronic games
d. make them do chores like cutting the grass
e. make them help you clean house
Make them understand they cannot disobey you and suffer no consequences whatsoever. Make them understand YOU are the parent and, therefore, YOU are the boss.
Tell your neighbor you will not put up with their children trespassing on your property any longer. It is THEIR responsibility to control their children and they had better do that now, or their children will grow up to be uncontrollable brats.
Stop catering to these children; yours and your neighbors. You are an adult, for crying out loud. You are a parent. Start acting like it.
I think a trellis would just giv them a better foothold..lmao.Guess u just need to ground them maybe?
First of all stop your own kids. A full week of being confined with no tv or computer should do it. If your kids don't climb the neighbors kids may not either.
Second, talk to the neighbors Mom and have her agree that her kids are not allowed on your wall. If they are call the police, for trespassing.
3. Put spikes on top of the wall, this will make for uneven footing.
However, as I'm sure your aware, the kids can fall and get hurt and guess who is going to have to pick up the bill.
