Thread 2937699

This path has formed in my yard over the last 6 months. Undesirable individuals and packs are using it and leaving rubbish. They also make a lot of noise late at night. How do I stop this invasive behavior? Can't do a fence per HOA.

Shout a warning and when there is no indication of the trespasser leaving the way they came shoot.
Do not shoot in their back. It is ethically not clear wether shooting them in the back for the persistent violation of your property rights for the time it takes to ceise (walking back the way they came from) is just.

Take two I-beams. Weld into cross. Lay perforated brass tube on cross. Cover it in a layer of mineral wool. Attach solid fuel tube to open end of perforated tube and form a preheat loop. Wrap with mineral fiber string so everytjing stays in place. Errect in yard. Use fuel pump to supply whatever fuel you have. Light.

This, and but if this is somehow real, the correct solution is to get the fuck over it OP and stop worrying about a useless patch of grass.

>>2937699 (OP)
You should move your house 30ft to the right in order to block the path

Just another reason why corner lots suck. They're great locations for gas stations in commercial areas but in residential areas, your yard is under constant assault. Even with a fence, people will want to put up yard sale signs and ads for their lawn mowing business. Plus if there are sidewalks, they take up right of way on two sides of your property instead of just one.

Keep your yard constantly flooded with water. Those niggers won't want to get mud all over their Jordans.

>>2937880
I'll try this because it seems least likely to spark a backlash or incur liability.

>>2937699 (OP)
Bring this photo, and any sec cam footage of the tweakers, to the HOA rep. Explain you are trying to keep your lawn in good order and are stuck due to the fencing limitation. Ask if you could get an exemption due to being on a high traffic corner lot, either for a low fence (just enough to make it obviously trespassing to cross over it) or for a low hedge.
If they turn it down, write a letter to the local paper complaining that your HOA is abbetting drug addicts and damaging property values. HOA people are all about status, they'll bend over backwards if they start getting bad press in the boomer pages.

I have a blue heeler, he doesn't like strangers on his property.

Get involved in the HOA and run for office. My bro did and was quite effective.

Then push encouraging fences to canalize enemy movement to the roads.
Remind everyone if you don't control your property the gnaggerz will destroy the area even sooner.

Every lot should be fenced on all sides with spiky barrier plants like agave.

Can you place rows of boulders along the perimeter? They're an old way to keep cars out of your yard and make it less inviting.

if OP is in an HOA it's so shit, he could do what he wants. he just used it as an excuse to be lazy and not put up a fence.

>>2938429
also this:

>Undesirable individuals and packs are using it and leaving rubbish.

most HOA's are either in gated communities, or in nice neighborhoods with none of those things anywhere near them.

because of the design of the sidewalks and yard sizes this is not an HOA. they were very rare until the 80's. if it ever was an HOA it failed or disbanded 40 years ago.

I do know that the castle doctrine and self defense right isn't as strong in the USA as it is in my country for example (altho it has been eroded at incredible rate lately by lgbt judges and lawmakers who pass laws that parrot judges) but it surely allows you to protect property, right?

Get a real bastard of a dog on a long leash that will chase and eat the fucking kids. Also setup a camera to catch them cutting though your yard and soon to be harassing the dog. When the kids try and kill it, you can then get them arrested.

>>2938911
Doesn't matter. Self defense laws in the states makes believing you are in danger a valid reason for shooting someone, provided you shoot to kill. The real danger of shooting a trespasser is getting sued which is a civil case and not a criminal offense.

>>2938912
well I have already hinted I am not an american and in law school I learned that many jurisdictions, USA included, have much weaker self defense laws and castle doctrine than many european countries, mine included.
Judges are eroding all of this lately, but until very recently, you could argue that is was legal to shoot at someone who is in the process of merely insulting a third person. Ofc you'd still have to get the court to follow the argument but it's not unfounded. Laws here allow you to defend any legally protected personal interests, including personal honor. The law would also allow you to protect a third persons legal interests on their behalf. All this is only if your action is suitable and meant to stop an ongoing infringement. The only restriction the law places on your choice of means is 'very gross disproportionality'. They have introduced this after a few very famous cases of legal shootings over nothing.
>Picrel is a case every law student here has to work through. Shooting children who steal cherries. The law also affords you protection when for example you fell into a rage and went avove and beyond what was needed, after you already stopped the assailant.
At any rate the important takeaway: The law affords almost no protection to the attacker. Especially the law does not demand proportionality or the defendant to take any risks. If you can put a slug in that guy at a distance then do it, no need to announce your presence when they could be packing or try to wrestle them. And that is a sensible law.

What is you HOA's rules on large boulders? I expect that they would be effective at deterring individuals but maybe not well-organized packs.

Since this is the closest thing to a landscaping thread I’m gonna ask my question here.

How do fill in the gaps between the concrete blocks, where the wood boards are sitting? Remove wood, clean crevice, tamp, and fill in with…gravel?

Would pouring concrete be worth the trouble? If so, should I reinforce it with something?

>>2937699 (OP)

OP: to prevent undesirables from crossing your property, you will physically have to block it off and then protect it. I recommend building at least an 8ft tall see-through metal fence with 2ft deep footings all the way around. Then get 2 of these (they’re much better with st least 1 other dog) and pay the money to make sure they’re well-trained. They get through the fence every time so you have to convince them to stay.

The fence easily delineates public property and the dogs make sure the public respects it.

>>2939175

Build a fence anyway, if they come after you demand they reimburse you as well as come up with an effective alternative. Imply you’ll go to court if they give you trouble.

Take your dogs everywhere with you.

>>2939243
Not an HOA but my town limits fences behind a house to 72" and street facing can only be 36". Corner lots are terrible in "walkable" areas because sidewalks eat up part of the lot on two sides and the frontage on both of those sides have the street facing restrictions. In my area people with corner lots often build a garage on the "side" facing part of the lot since it can be up to 25' tall instead of the 36" fence.

Or if he’s lazy don’t bother to pick them at all. Then when the HOA comes around to complain, bag it up and leave it at the HOA presidents doorstep

>>2940261

>Depending on location, you can ABSOLUTELY kill a fucker for trespassing.

This, depending on where you live, and the circumstances.
For example, do not go fucking about in someones attached carport, in Kentucky. That is considered "Unwanted entry into one's home" and can legally be responded to, with lethal force.
At one time parts of Texas had similar laws, that applied to one's entire property, but lethal force was only justified after dark. There was a case in the 90's where a repo man learned not to conduct business after dark, the hard way. The shooter was found innocent.

>>2938178
>>2937758
Yeah i call bullshit on that one, HOA Karens are pretty good at dealing with undesirables in subtle ways

>>2938911
It depends on the legislation. Where I live it's considered self defense if the trespassing happens at night and the trespasser do no leave after a warning.

>>2937880
Leave dog shit on path. Problem will decrease gradually

That's what I'm trying to avoid.

Also set up a camera.

When they destroy it, involve police.

Keep video evidence.

The mathematical issue with that solution, is that it will only impose a circle from the pole, and thus, a new, second, shorter path will form much closer to the corner where the circle cannot reach.

Tr an array of ultra bright, blinding, say 4300-5000K LED floodlights to absolutely shock the shit out of the night gaunts. You could use a photoelectric beam + a timer to enforce it the moment somebody walks on it. Consider also adding a white noise generator or warning tone that would add to the shock but not wake you up every time some asshole trips it (parabolic speaker can help with this and it's less likely to wake you up if you use blockout shutters).
You may also be able to use fiberoptics as a perimeter sensor (its not as expensive as it sounds, but may require some arduino magic).

HOA but the neighborhood looks unkempt, what's the point?

>>2945062
Weak HOAs are more common than you'd think. They don't get much attention because there are few rules for karens to abuse. Often they're mainly to pay for something like street lights that the county doesn't provide and to serve as a single point of contact for things like getting the streets repaved every couple of decades. Often the HOA dues are something like $30 a year, which is just enough to cover the fees for keeping the associate incorporated and pay the electric bill for the street lights.

>>2946053
There were started to keep certain people out. Once that function was taken away from them they started to get warped. It was made worse by the fact that many neighborhoods are built with them because it is cheaper for the contractor. Instead of building the neighborhood and having to pay a shitton of fees for the city to manage it (road upkeep, parks, etc.) they make an HOA and put it in charge of everything. This lowers THEIR cost burden but shifts it all to the owners, who now pay HOA fees on top of their standard taxes even though the HOA fees generally cover things like snow removal, road paving and what have you (though this varies a lot from one HOA to the next). You can basically end up getting 'taxed' twice'. So, now you have an HOA being run as a for profit operation. That is when you get the really crazy shit like them taking your property and evicting you from your homes.

Some years back an HOA went after a couple of LAWYERS because they have political signs in their yard that were 4 inches too large. The HOA voted to change its own rules so it could fine them for the signs. This went as well as you could expect. The lawyers ended up suing, winning, and were granted a $100k judgement. The HOA spent over $400k fighting that case and another case where they arbitrarily refused to approve to construction for the same couple, expecting it would win. A cool half mil in the hole its dues went from $650 a year to $3,500. It tried to sell its only asset, the neighborhood common area. When that failed it declared bankruptcy. Meanwhile it was unable to afford to perform its own functions, like pay for the upkeep of the common area. Madness.

Never buy land that is subject to an HOA. The boards are elected from the people subject to the HOA and you can get some real fucking shitlords running things that have no real idea what they are allowed to do and what the consequences are when they fuck up.

>>2946070

This kind of design is a big part of our jobs.

A fence or low hedge is the most obvious choice, low hedge are effective because they're wide. If people can't step over them and would have to jump, they're likely to go around. For these kinds is hedges you want something which shoots, because small holes render these hedges ineffective very quickly.

Next step up, medium, high hedge. High fence. Screening hedge.

Wierd options, irrigated gullies. Like a moat but only mud. Just a ditch which is always wet. Depending on climate this can be very effective and have less visual impact than a vertical barrier.

There's soft radial barriers, lines of ornamental grass. You see these a lot on commercial plantings, especially corners of garden beds and open areas the owner might use by not want people to cut through.
Another odd choice is a blind angle. People are generally reluctant to trespass if they can't work out if anyone is present. So a fence coming off the corner of the house for instance would mean someone walking past couldn't tell if you were behind the fence or not. You could ambush them. Similarly if people can't see across an open space, they are unlikely to cut through it, because they're unsure if they can actually get through or if there will be someone on the other side.

Developers often put up a star picket fence with three lines of wire. Just to make it clear that it's trespassing to enter, and a camera on a pole. Because often, trespassers will be going to, or fleeing from a crime scene. So putting cameras up in these kinds of spaces is a strong deterrent to crime in the area.

Depending on where you live, put up "Trespassers will Be Shot".
Oregonian here. Shot three people coming onto my land. First time went to court, had to spend a few days in jail, but was released. All Charges of not guilty and even reimbursed for my time. My work didn't believe me, but they let me have my PTO, and that to was reimbursed when I showed them my court records.
Second time I shot someone, went to court, no jail time, but Judge was pressing for excessive force. I have 13 Trespassers will be shot signs, and I didn't aim for head or body. The reason being was the person was 17 years old. Court ruled in my favor, but was told I need to have more signs and a better security system.
Spend 15k to install lights for signs, a gate, with no fence, and paid for a small alert system to my local police.
Shot another person, went to court and the judge ruled in my favor. Even stating, "You've been here far to often and you bring proof you give warnings to any trespassers. Hopefully they will think twice before using your yard as a road." Spent less than 24 hours in court and went home.
Now everyone avoids my home. The USPS also left me a note stating I have to pick up my mail from the post office from now on.
Love living in Oregon so I don't have to put up with what you have to put up with.
Final note. All three of them are crippled now, but I didn't use excessive force. Also sent two people to jail for harassment and death threats. When mailing someone a threat, don't put your address and name on the letter.

The best answer. The blind angle or the mud one are very effective and low cost solutions.

This might sound crazy, but hear me out. You need to get naked except for a ski mask and good running shoes. When you start chasing them, don’t use the front door. Come from the bushes or another hiding place so they don’t think you’re the one who lives there. Scream incoherently, say RAPE RAPE RAPE, bark like a dog. Chase them about half a block before ducking on somewhere to hide again, wait until they are done, then scurry back home.

They won’t come back after that

Any use of force incident on your property is gonna have "premeditation" written all over it if you're dumb enough to put that up.

But they will invade open land, be a monumental pain to remove and even having them on your land, somewhat understandably, it's typically a bylaw violation. Not good advice.

There are many thorny hedge plants which aren't invasive, which you often see on acerage like firethorn, and more common urban plants like juniper, holy,

Dump some manure (or your own poop?) out there for a few weeks. Might help the grass grow back too if you spread it in.

I'll never understand how people can live like that. An empty lawn, a giant area with no redeeming features beyond being something to take care of.
Maybe do something with your lawn, like grow some crops. You don't even need to grow to harvest, just enough for people to have a harder time walking over your lawn instead of around on the pavement.
If you fill most of the area with, idk, a trampoline, some ornamental plants, a pollinator garden, a wildlife pond, or grow some trees for fruit, a good chunk of people will probably see it too much of a bother to snake through your property.
