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

Not to mentioned who exactly would he be reported to? |

Oh the horror! Does he have friends that park on the public road in front of YOUR house too? Lock him up! |

NP and OMG I am suddenly in this position. I will take the lawn mower over the shrieking kids any day. Zoom and calls do not pick up the lawn mower. It does pick up the screaming kids. I've had to move my office to get away from our neighbor's kids. And I totally get that it is perfectly normal for kids to shriek and people to mow their lawns. I deal. But I cannot wait for my office to open back up. |

He is probably a bored retiree w/too much time on his hands.
If it truly bothers you -> talk to him about it. Reporting him would be cruel + extreme. |

Let's say you did want to report him. Who do you call? The EPA? The local lawncare union? |

OP, have you ever lived in the suburbs? Serious question. In the spring and summer, I recall hearing at least one neighbor mowing their lawn every day or every other day. This is common.
Seems like you aren’t used to this and grew up in a city where lawns weren’t a thing. |

| Omg…my neighbor constantly mows her lawn. It drives me a little nuts but it is her right. Her lawn looks awful so I have to think it’s her preferred exercise or something. Because their lawn really needs time to grow. Or maybe she is trying to kill it? |

OP it is illegal to misuse 911 for petty neighborhood grievances … Agree with PP’s other 3 take aways . |

“911 What’s your emergency?” “My neighbor is mowing his lawn too much.” 😠 |

And I live next door to a neighbor who's yard rivals Sanford & Son's! Scraps of old wood, wires, debris they bought on Craigslist, etc. They have a rat problem (which she sweetly shared with me). No grass AT ALL, just weeds. We'll all trade you, OP!!!! |
