Why is my old neighbor mowing his lawn almost every day. Do I have recourse to report him?

You spelled “voluntarily commit” yourself wrong,

My neighbor does this. He needs a walker around the house, and I think he uses the mower as a walker. This way he can walk outside without feeling old or embarrassed.

Buy the old guy a manscaping kit. Maybe he just has a need to trim things.

It does consume gasoline, and puts pollutants into the air. Just saying.

Report him to WHO? Do you have a HOA? Or are you planning to call 911?

I wonder if he has dementia.

This thread started in 2022, was revived in 2023, and now again in 2024. It looks like OP might have been back in the thread in 2023.

Is he still mowing? OP didn't say how long every day he mows.

Try having 4 months of street and sidewalk construction 2 years in a row while you're working from home and they go as long s they can when the weather is good to get the bonus for finishing the contract before schedule.

Are there any rules on this, I understand once or twice a week but almost every day is excessive.

He is retired probably age 60+

As long as he is mowing his lawn during daylight hours it is none of your effing business. Close your windows.

You can't report him, but I agree it would be super annoying

Man, that's a long thread!
I, for one, am wondering how big of a lawn the old fart has. If he mows every single day, he can't be going for months because he'll run out of grass. And if he only mows for a week and then stops, then OP should just suck it up. Unless the guy lives on acres and acres but then OP won't be near him to hear the mower.

Yes, call the cops and complain. Non emergency number.

Complain to HOA.

You’re an idiot.

Sabatoage his lawnmower.

I 1,000% agree OP. We cannot go outside in any part of our yard because the crazy old neighbor mows his lawn EVERY D-amn Day, sometimes 2x daily. All of these people saying it's nothing would find out its definitely something when you cannot enjoy anytime outside without hearing mowing, weed wracking, & using a leaf blower every single day! Guaranteed!!
