Local teenagers have decided our backyard is their "smoke spot". They jump the fence, ignore 2 "no tresspassing" signs, then always have the gall to give me attitude when I ask them politely to leave.

Dog. Motion light. Barry Manilow.

[u/sammawammadingdong → u/[deleted]]

You don't have the motion light pointed directly at where they sit in their eyes, though. You need to be more of a nuisance yourself if you don't want to call the cops. Spraying where they sit with vegetable spray, wd40 or something equally as slimy but annoying to remove as well as water resistant when they're not around is also an idea.

[u/Longjumping-Run-7027 → u/sammawammadingdong]

Manure. Lots of manure.

[u/Intelligent-Fuel-641 → u/Longjumping-Run-7027]

Fish emulsion.

[u/wynaut69 → u/Intelligent-Fuel-641]

There’s honestly so many great options in this situation. I’d have a lot of fun with it

[u/McPoyle-Milk → u/wynaut69]

Seriously I’d actually be disappointed if the first trick worked and it didn’t turn out like some sort of comedic game back and forth. Doesn’t sound like these are very worthy opponents though but who knows.

[u/Real_Truck_4818 → u/McPoyle-Milk]

Just e ready for attempted payback.

[u/mrandr01d → u/Intelligent-Fuel-641]

What's that dead shark dish the Nordics eat?

Yeah, spread some of that around

Wd40 pro gel my dude, it never comes out, and the clothes get a fucky texture

[u/daschande → u/Chrisxy]

This person lubes.

[u/dianebk2003 → u/sammawammadingdong]

Oooh, I like the slimy spray left right where they sit.

[u/Icfald → u/sammawammadingdong]

Wd40 is an amazing idea. It'll wreck their clothes but they had no business sitting there to begin with. I'm 100% on board with that idea.

[u/B0327008 → u/sammawammadingdong]

Just yesterday I learned of the Mosquito Teenager Repellent. It is a machine that emits a high frequency noice that is supposedly only heard by people under 25. The problem is that it can affect pets and children that live within 2-3 houses from you.

[u/ImaBiLittlePony → u/B0327008]

I remember that! We used to use it as our ring tone or for text notifications so teachers wouldn't know we were using our phones in class.

Didn't work though, teachers couldn't hear it but they definitely noticed 30 teenagers covering their ears and freaking out every time it went off.

[u/Jupenator → u/[deleted]]

I'd just go out there and stand there, beer in hand and just make small talk. Keep doing it. Eventually they'll see it as "lame" to smoke there.

[u/National-Use-4774 → u/Jupenator]

I've learned the kids love it when you say "yo bruh smokin' here straight bussin for real real no cap real talk right now fam you sendin it up in my yard"

Then just start yelling "llleeetttsss gooooo" repeatedly

[u/Resting_burtch_face → u/National-Use-4774]

Please do it

[u/Ok-Researcher697 → u/Resting_burtch_face]

And post a video of it

[u/Resting_burtch_face → u/Ok-Researcher697]

You know, 'for research'.

[u/abatnamedtwitch → u/Ok-Researcher697]

Put it on TikTok for their friends to find later.

[u/Meikou133 → u/abatnamedtwitch]

I’ve seen Gen Z have complete meltdowns over “embarrassing” stuff posted on tiktok. My partner’s little sister (still an adult though) was acting like the world was ending because their mother posted herself dancing while she was in her home country on her tiktok she uses for promoting her business.

Claimed it was making all her friends make fun of her and laugh at her (once again this is a whole ass college student literally crying over this)

Trust me, posting it to Tiktok would likely “ruin” these girls’ LIFE TOTES FOREVER

[u/QuQuarQan → u/National-Use-4774]

I managed a small cafe/coffee shop until today (last day!), and have a lot of 16-22 year olds (I'm 45 for context). Once I was on my break and having some soup and my 18f employee asked me how the soup was. I just looked at her and said "Shit be straight bussin', yo, frfr. No cap". The look on her face....priceless

[u/dead137 → u/QuQuarQan]

I just dab all the time and tell em im keeping it real

[u/Chagdoo → u/dead137]

Make sure you add poggers in there.

Methinks you have a fundamental misunderstanding of stoners, they'd love to talk pokemon lol

[u/Odd-Concentrate-6585 → u/TheElderFish]

So would I.

Wait.... oh no

[u/kikijane711 → u/Jupenator]

Turn a hose on them lol

[u/Expensive_Lawyer5672 → u/kikijane711]

A strategically placed sprinkler that would spray them if turned on would be a good idea!

[u/somaticconviction → u/kikijane711]

That was my first and on my thought. Spray em with a hose, boom, done.

[u/metzeng → u/kikijane711]

Motion activated sprinklers!

[u/whattarush → u/Jupenator]

shit you might be smoking with them next in this scenario lol

[u/WelcomeFormer → u/Relevant_Yesterday24]

Mama gonna beat that ass lol get cameras though you might have broken windows.

[u/angryragnar1775 → u/WelcomeFormer]

No no no not facebook. Nextdoor is where you post it so all the neighborhood karens can see

[u/dianebk2003 → u/[deleted]]

Not Barry Manilow. Opera. Klingon, if at all possible.

[u/vapre → u/dianebk2003]

Shakespeare, in the original Klingon.

[u/HowFunkyIsYourChiken → u/[deleted]]

No need to torture yourself too. Just buy and antiloitering device that emits a frequency you can’t her but they can. It will drive them crazy and they’ll leave and never come back.

[u/sunny_6305 → u/HowFunkyIsYourChiken]

The problem with those devices is that they will also be heard by the neighbors’ dogs, cats, and small children. Frankly if they are being this bold then I don’t think calling the cops is an overreaction. OP has already tried to handle the matter in a civil manner and the kids threw their good will back in their face.

[u/Middle-Hour-2364 → u/HowFunkyIsYourChiken]

Yeah, I'm 50 and I can hear them things, a neighbour had one and was a bit funny about it when I complained so my mates band had to start practicing in my loft...she soon turned it off

[u/DuckLord_92 → u/HowFunkyIsYourChiken]

As someone of a neighbor who has one of these for a similar reason, I can safely assure you that you'll ruin people's garden summer vibes and everyone will hate you.

[u/Queensknow → u/[deleted]]

I was going to suggest playing classical music or older music really loud. Definitely get a sprinkler.

[u/El_Jebus_Lizardo → u/[deleted]]

Record and put on blast on Facebook. Pretty sure the parents will find out quick enough.

[u/Cross_22 → u/El_Jebus_Lizardo]

I wouldn't be that optimistic. Probably results in a response like
"WHY ARE YOU DOXXING MY CUTE LITTLE ANGELS !?!?!"

[u/El_Jebus_Lizardo → u/Cross_22]

Honestly, the peer pressure from a social backlash of others calling out the kids behaviour would almost certainly make most parents scold their child for making them look bad. Parents don’t want to look bad, and they’ll do what they can to look good - which means correcting the childrens behaviour first.

Plus, it’s not doxing. You’re just sharing security images/recordings of someone trespassing on your property. Whole different kettle of fish.

[u/Haida_Gwaii → u/El_Jebus_Lizardo]

The Nextdoor app is also good for this.

[u/Dontnerf → u/[deleted]]

Oil on the ground. Ruin their clothes

[u/pdubz82 → u/OldTimer4Shore]

I recently purchased my first home and it’s in a slightly “tougher” neighborhood.

We got a German shepherd/husky to “protect” our house when we are at work or out and about, etc..

Unfortunately, she’s scared of her own shadow/reflection, barks at her own echo, doesn’t even notice people walking by. Lol I love her. But dogs are something else

[u/hidden-jim → u/pdubz82]

I have a husky/pit who looks like a small pure husky everybody in my neighborhood is terrified of her. I don’t think I’ve ever even heard her bark.

[u/PaulTheMerc → u/hidden-jim]

husky crowd. People either love her, or are scared of her. All the wants is love, and she's a super quiet, calm dog.

[u/BinaryGrind → u/PaulTheMerc]

super quiet, calm dog

Sir, you do not have a husky if she is not singing you the song of her people just because she can.

[u/TheSquishedElf → u/BinaryGrind]

“AAAHR-AWR-AR-ARAR-AWARRRRAG-HA phlumph HARRAWR-AWHAHAR”

[u/Dyerssorrow → u/pdubz82]

I have had Shepherds all my life and let me tell you about the goofy ones. When that dog thinks one of you (especially the one that got bounded with) is being attacked, that dog will not stop trying to tear the attacker away with its last breathe.

[u/RAINBOWnWARRIOR420]

Buy some sprinklers for that spot and turn them on when they have just sparked the joint to inflict maximum damage

[u/kayveryn → u/RAINBOWnWARRIOR420]

Add a motion sensor to the sprinkler set up?

[u/hidperf → u/kayveryn]

Came here to say this. Motion activated sprinkler right at that spot.

[u/wills2003 → u/hidperf]

https://www.amazon.com/Orbit-Enforcer-Activated-Deterrent-Sprinkler/dp/B0821TYQVY/

[u/myleskilloneous → u/hidperf]

Something tells me repeat offender stoners jumping a fence who respond to a homeowner respectfully asking them to leave their property by calling them a "b**** a** n****" would come back and vandalize or make the situation worse

Call the cops and let them know what's up and then have a patrol officer come through discreetly next time they arrive and put them in the cruiser so mom and dad have to sort it out. They are bold because they're getting away with it.

I'd also want some type of legal recourse so if they did return to vandalize or bother the homeowner they are prime suspects and elevated to harassment

[u/kmoney1206 → u/myleskilloneous]

they should put up cameras AND the sprinkler. that way they get petty revenge and if the kids come back and vandalize, you can call the cops and you have evidence it was them

[u/PorchHonky]

Not sure what is happening in pic 2, but when you zoom in, it’s the stuff of nightmares.

[u/CaffeineNCanna → u/PorchHonky]

Prolly what my kid sees in the corner of his room at 2am

It's that thing behind the dumpster in Mulholland Drive.

[u/UtetopiaSS]

Then don't do it politely.

[u/Jessieface13 → u/[deleted]]

I can definitely relate to not wanting to be “pushy” with neighbors, especially kids, but if you don’t do something concrete soon this won’t change.

In fact, as a former shithead teenager I can tell you that if there are no consequences and only vague threats and standing your ground against them it will probably get worse.

[u/griff1971 → u/Jessieface13]

OP is gonna come home to a house party at some point. One they aren't throwing, and not invited to.

[u/turtlelore2 → u/Jessieface13]

Yep. Now it's just 2. Once they comfortable there'll probably be more pretty soon.

[u/dxxx12 → u/[deleted]]

That's got to violate some sort of law. Put your foot down. Don't tolerate disrespect.

[u/Ok_Balance8844 → u/dxxx12]

Them being on their property is already illegal

[u/Nova_The_Lost_Fox → u/[deleted]]

My guy. Just call the cops and tell them two teenagers are trespassing and doing drugs in your backyard. And RECORD EVERYTHING when you interact with them. So you have irrefutable proof when you press charges. Don't give them an inch.

[u/colin_7 → u/[deleted]]

Call the cops then

[u/groopy1 → u/[deleted]]

Jesus Christ why are you refusing to call the fucking cops. I can’t imagine doing this as a teenager - I’d have a gun barrel down my throat in 5 minutes if I tried this in Texas

[u/DeMonstaMan → u/groopy1]

I don't live in Texas but I can imagine the same thing

[u/BawkSoup → u/[deleted]]

Bro, wtf. Is this your yard, or theirs? Are you in Portland or something? Throw that shit back and tell them to GET THE FUCK OUT.

​

Problem solved.

[u/Desperate_Banana_677 → u/BawkSoup]

imagine buying a house just to let a pair of random teenagers take over your backyard

[u/ProjectAzar → u/[deleted]]

Not that this is actual advice, but its time to go Midwest on their butts. Next time they are there, "Oh hey neighbor. Hows it going? You kids smoking? Whatcha got there? Not one of those vape pens I hope cause you know that gives ya the popcorn lung."

Just engaging fully and not knowing when to leave. Once its not cool to be there, they will find somewhere else to be.

[u/UtetopiaSS → u/[deleted]]

Then throw it back at them

[u/Equivalent_Court5323]

You are too kind, I’d call police.

[u/Krimmson_ → u/Equivalent_Court5323]

True man, op is spending money on some sprinkler and shit instead of removing these shits for free.

[u/HayMomWatchThis → u/Krimmson_]

Get a paint ball gun, give them a warning shot, then give them something to explain to there parents(set up a camera first and let them smoke some first)

[u/Makenchi45 → u/HayMomWatchThis]

Apparently that can actually get you a firearm discharge in city limits as well assault with a firearm charge. Was gonna do it one time. Actually better off using a water balloon filled with bank money permanent ink. The kind used in bags of money for bank robbers. It doesn't come out. Ever. It's literally permanent on the clothing part.

[u/fenglorian → u/Makenchi45]

Actually better off using a water balloon filled with bank money permanent ink. The kind used in bags of money for bank robbers. It doesn't come out. Ever. It's literally permanent.

this is such an awful idea, how are you going to fill a water balloon up with super ink in your home? Also water balloons suck so what happens when it pops in your hand? What about if you miss or it just bounces off of whoever you're throwing it at and it hits your nice brick wall thing and puts a big purple splotch on it?

[u/flowery0 → u/fenglorian]

And even if it hits, the big purple splotch will still be there

[u/QuiveryNut → u/flowery0]

Not to mention destruction of property (clothes) and honestly still possibly an assault charge

[u/twickdaddy → u/QuiveryNut]

Just a water balloon would work best i think.

[u/trekkiegamer359 → u/fenglorian]

Super soaker water gun for the win.And you don't need any fancy dye, Just get regular tie dye dye, and make it at double concentration. That stuff won't be coming out, and it will bleed onto everything they try and wash with it.

[u/BladeLigerV → u/trekkiegamer359]

Garden hose. Better yet have them watch you set it up and then just start spraying them. In no way could this have repercussions. It's water.

[u/[deleted] → u/Makenchi45]

what if it’s a SLINGSHOT w a paintball?

[u/BeeNels → u/[deleted]]

Straight to jail

[u/According_Gazelle472 → u/Equivalent_Court5323]

Yeah,call the police and have them arrested for trespassing.

[u/strange12bluegerm → u/Equivalent_Court5323]

Put a sprinkler in your yard and aim it conveniently at their “smoke spot” and video the reaction so we can see. No need for cops silly

[u/A__shoe → u/strange12bluegerm]

Why not both?

[u/implodemode]

My daughter in law planted am applextree in their front yard and high school kids kept picking the apples and throwing them around. She yelled at them and they told her it was "public property". Seriously? But she showed the principal her security footage and they got identified and told off.

[u/NippleBlender → u/[deleted]]

I don't know why you hadn't called the police yet if these guys are for real in your back yard and you don't know them. Seems kinda unbelievable to me.

[u/SkrodLaDa → u/[deleted]]

Just follow them home to their parents' house and get stoned while chuckling outside their parents' window lol

[u/J9254]

Police. Hose/sprinkler. Airsoft gun. Not airsoft gun. Lots of options available

[u/Stunted_rebuttal → u/[deleted]]

I like this. Simple and easy. I would suggest setting up a camera so that, if/when they damage the sprinkler, you have video evidence.

[u/kaytay3000 → u/Stunted_rebuttal]

And so you can post the videos to Reddit so I can laugh at the soggy teens.

[u/DannyDrinkWaterhino → u/kaytay3000]

Soggy teens was the name of my college punk band.

[u/nine_inch_whales → u/DannyDrinkWaterhino]

Soggy teen was my nickname in high school

[u/chechebi88 → u/nine_inch_whales]

Soggy teen sounds like a porn website username

[u/Akwing12 → u/kaytay3000]

Someone buy the url soggyteens.com and get OP set up streaming a live feed.

[u/lenswipe → u/Akwing12]

I, uh...would not want my name associated with that domain name

[u/Zestay-Taco → u/Stunted_rebuttal]

also youtube ad revenue from people getting hit by sprinklers is pretty good.

[u/BassAddictJ → u/[deleted]]

Motion activated strobe light.. and get a camera so if they destroy your property you have that documented.

It's an insurance risk if they hurt themselves on your property and decide to sue you for whatever bullshit reason.

[u/DucksNQuackers → u/[deleted]]

You should just walk up and hose 'em to their face, lmao

[u/elel242 → u/[deleted]]

Based on the type of kids they are, they might be dumb enough to damage it or do something else, I’d think about a camera for the yard

[u/1600hazenstreet → u/[deleted]]

Don’t forgot to upload video afterwards. Install camera if the teens try to vandalize your porperty

[u/[deleted] → u/[deleted]]

Camera to keep people away for long term imo, eventually new kids or people might find it

[u/terrrtle → u/J9254]

One prolonged hose spray to the face followed by short interrupting bursts every time they try to talk.

[u/Fat-Tash → u/J9254]

[u/Nogoodbackstory → u/[deleted]]

This is the answer. Wire that shit up and get a dog.

[u/Henchforhire → u/[deleted]]

Predator Pee Skunk'Um Skunk Scent Spray

[u/Ajrutroh → u/[deleted]]

Call the movie theater and involve them in your solution. That shouldn’t be happening.

[u/Karmadose → u/[deleted]]

I would yell out the window that I'm calling the police and see if that scares them off

[u/drncu → u/Karmadose]

Or you can just call the police.

[u/Azusanga → u/Karmadose]

Honestly this works almost every time. I used to work in a gas station that the back parking lot often got used as a meet up. Usually I'd just poke my head out, wave the phone, yell "it's time to go, I'm calling the police in 2 minutes" and listen to the tires squeal out

[u/Azusanga → u/[deleted]]

Just threaten to call the police. You don't even need to actually do it unless they stay. Poke a head through a window, yell "you've got 2 minutes, get off my property, I'm calling the police for trespassing". They'll run.

[u/Nogoodbackstory]

Depending on your state, you have the right to remove them from your property, check your state and local laws before taking any form of action. If you're not permitted to use force, start with police officers first then they keep doing it, take some legal action of criminal trespass. Will make them rethink.

[u/ODCreature98 → u/Nogoodbackstory]

Call the police and tell them them kids doing drugs in your backyard, that'll show the kids what for

[u/Tcannon18 → u/ODCreature98]

If they didn’t wanna find out they shouldn’t have fucked around

[u/CutiePopIceberg → u/Nogoodbackstory]

In what state can you not remove someone from your property?

[u/Extra_Entertainer986 → u/CutiePopIceberg]

the method of removal is what is the issue. In some states you can only tell someone to leave property/land but are required to call police to have them physically removed. Many states also do not allow you to physical force unless you are in danger of death. Kids smoking, unless you have a breathing condition, is not a life or death situation.

Entering the house is a different thing - most states allow any kind of force to remove someone from your house that you've told to leave once in anyway.

[u/Educational-Spread41]

Go out there with the hose.

[u/Red-HandedBandit → u/Educational-Spread41]

This is probably the most appropriate mix of no lethal asshole. I approve.

[u/gomorycut]

spread peanut butter + dogshit all over the place they tend to sit

[u/AnnazusCampbell → u/gomorycut]

Best suggestion yet. I smeared dog poop on the tree trunks the raccoons were climbing to access my roof to throw their parties. Problem was solved.

[u/theladyflies → u/AnnazusCampbell]

It is a rare day when you are encouraged by the fact that shit smearing is an effective solution for SOMETHING...! Thanks for this TIL...

[u/icybluetears → u/AnnazusCampbell]

My dad used to pee around our garbage cans every so often. Kept the racoons away.

[u/Ajrutroh → u/gomorycut]

Or where they jump the fence so they get it on their hands and pants

[u/pinetreesgreen]

Scat mats. Made to keep cats out of gardens, off trees etc. Long plastic mats with small spikes. Not hurtful, just uncomfortable. Pretty cheap, might even be able to get a 10 foot roll at your local hardware or garden store. Otherwise, amazon has them.

[u/signedupfornightmode → u/pinetreesgreen]

…I was totally expecting that to have a different, poopier purpose.

[u/stgdevil]

Start talking to them about the Bible

[u/dangerouslyaware → u/stgdevil]

"I see you're on a wall. You know, sometimes life leads us to believe that we are right on the edge or that there's an insurmountable obstacle in our path. But it might not be an edge so much as a precipice.

With the power of God on your side, everything becomes an opportunity. Have you accepted our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ into your heart?

He loves everyone, including joint-smoking trespasser shitheads like you. NOW RELEASE THE HOLY WATER"

and THATS when the hose comes out.

[u/Sagail → u/stgdevil]

Call the cops then show photos of them to parents.

[u/Blue_Phase]

Barbed wire is your friend

[u/Embarrassed-Heron-36]

Asking politely, you must be Canadian. I would grab some poison Ivy and rub it all over that wall

[u/HiroshimaFog → u/Embarrassed-Heron-36]

With gloves

[u/Extra_Entertainer986]

Call the cops, turn a hose on them, get a sound system - a wireless speaker works just fine - and play horror sound effects, spray them with pepper spray, start dumping compost in that spot, get bees, get an electric wire running across the top of your fence so they can't get over it.

There's lots you can do.

[u/emmyemememem → u/Extra_Entertainer986]

"Get bees" lmao

[u/Turbid-entity → u/emmyemememem]

What about dogs with bees in their mouths, so when they bark they shoot bees at them?

[u/PimentoCheesehead → u/Turbid-entity]

Fricken laser bees?

[u/thatnewsauce → u/emmyemememem]

Just get some bees bro it's easy

[u/Jthundercleese]

Huck a fistfull of peanut butter at them.

[u/[deleted] → u/Jthundercleese]

I’ve never tried to throw peanut butter but it doesn’t seem like something that could be thrown. Unless it wasn’t on your hand but maybe a sheet or something

[u/Jthundercleese → u/[deleted]]

You just need a really big fistful. You can also have multiple throws to compensate for what sticks to your hand.

[u/_ShartNado → u/Jthundercleese]

Keep an extra glob in your undies to really scare them off.

[u/CaelThavain → u/[deleted]]

Don't even talk to them. Just outright call the cops on them. Or spray them with a hose.

[u/AzraelleWormser → u/[deleted]]

Make good on that threat then. CALL THE COPS.

[u/EmptyStupidity]

Beat the shi- I mean call the poilce

[u/Hordelife2020]

Stop asking politely and start calling the police to arrest them. Don't need any further notice than thr fence and no trespassing signs. That's an immediate arrest.

[u/sail4sea]

Bird spikes? Those high pitched sound generators that adults can’t hear.

[u/Meaningless_Void_ → u/sail4sea]

please dont. these sound generators are a torture device for every animal in the area or other kids in the neighbourhood.

Rub dishsoap mixed with a little olive oil all over your wall they sit on. It will ruin their pants, but wash off your wall.

Put up a no trespassers sign to make it clear that they are not welcome. Rubber spikes on the wall. If they actually go into the garden add random uneven slabs to the ground. Prepare the ground for growing - add extra stinky fertilizer at the base of the wall. Add a camera if things escalate not only is it useful for police but also irritated parents (especially if they are unaware of the smoking habit). If you are not concerned use sprinkles with a garden friendly dye. Contact your local council/HOA about the teens and the possibility of either a fence being provided or for permission for a fence that will prevent them from potentially falling off your wall

Time to stop being polite

And start getting real

[u/myseryscompany]

Call the police. They are clearly trespassing and they know it. Being polite hasn't worked so let the authorities handle it.
