[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP.  You caught me.  In fact, I posted here out of sheer guilt from my "volunteer" trees...whatever that could be.  I only have a weekly lawn service and obviously should be spending night and day in my yard.  Some of you people are insane.[/quote]

OP you never answered what specific "junk trees" and "weeds" in your yard are at issue here.

If it's dandelions and a red mulberry tree (which may be messy but is native BTW), keep on going.

If we're talking, say, Japanese knotweed, Japanese honeysuckle, lesser celandine, for example...well those are problematic and it would be hard to contain the damage to your yard.

I said on the 1st page it’s a huckleberry. [b]As for what type of weeds how would I know[/b]?[/quote]

I'm the PP. No need to get snippy with me. Anyway, you just showed that you don't know what you're talking about, yet you think you are the aggrieved party. You act astounded a person could possibly know what's growing in their yard that is drawing complaints from their neighbor. Well, that's not too hard to find out. You don't need to be a botanist to know if it's dandelions or ivy. If it's something like Japanese knotweed, then you better educate yourself. If it's Japanese barberry, it's a haven for ticks. I don't expect everyone to know all that's growing in their yard. But if my neighbor was complaining about weeds in my yard, I'd make at least a rudimentary effort as a homeowner to know what the plant or plants are before posting here that the neighbor is a tyrant and I'm a victim. You said that you have a lawn service, so you could ask them to remove problematic weeds if needed but you are instead all huffy. You sound pretty darn difficult yourself. [/quote]
