I'm having a boundary issue with my neighbor. A friend of hers she has to do some of her yard work is trespassing on my property and killing my grass and trees with a powerful herbicide.
I'm still contemplating the best way to handle replacement of the trees. Suggestions on that would be helpful, too.
To try to prevent this from happening in the future, I'm thinking of putting up some kind of fence - something like a string between fence posts with "NO Trespassing" strung on it, to a solid 6' cedar fence.
I had a surveyor come out yesterday so the boundaries are clearly defined all the way around... and it's exactly where I expected it to be. The trees and grass he killed are a good 8' from the line.
So, please, give me some fence ideas. Something relatively low maintenance.
Or, do you think a fence would be a big waste of money?
I'm wanting to protect the rest of my 12' Green Giants.
I'm seriously considering this on a single fence post:
Low maintenance and low cost
This is what the fool did to my yard. Btw, the dead tree stub, is a remnant of the one he (allegedly) killed last year.
The red X on the left of the picture is the true pin, the other is a pipe the previous neighbor pounded into the ground.
Neighbor's property only goes back half as far as mine does.
I'd like to put an old fashioned-looking fieldstone "wall," just two or three rocks tall, going to the back corner.
No neighbor, just corn/soy field back there.
Took these last week. This week the poor arb looks twice as bad.
