Had Someone Mowing & Weed-Eating The Yard While I Went Shopping This Morning…

He was just finishing up and left about 10 minutes after we got back home. Then the Crazy Neighbor comes to ring my doorbell. I didn’t answer the doorbell this time. He was probably going to accuse the man of going over in his backyard to trim tree branches again. We just wanted him to mow & weed-eat. This guy is a male Karen who is complaining when we get our yard mowed every time as though we are encroaching on his property. He has an old dying tree not far from from our fence line that is full of dead branches that will drop off down in our yard if the wind blows a bit hard in a storm and that doesn’t seem to bother him a bit.

In Ohio if I had that dead tree or even a live one in my yard that dropped branches into your yard, I would be responsible for the any damages to your fence and property.

I would check and see if that applies in Oklahoma, and if it did, I would print that out and hand it to Mr. Karen every time he came over along with a no trespassing warning.

@WillaKissing Oh yes he would be responsible for damages but the key is trying to get him to shell out the money to pay for it. He inherited that house from his parents and it’s probably too much for him living by himself with the utility bills, property taxes & insurance. His parents were old when we moved here and they kept that place very tidy. When they died he got it and the backyard looks like a weed lot. There are some big branches piled up and have been for years on the side of his house, looks like something snakes would live under. That’s why feral cats are over there having babies.

@cherokeepatti Notify city code enforcement, they'll fine him until he gets it under control. If he racks up enough fines they'll put a lien on his property and foreclose him, then buh bye male karen.
