    Default Advice Needed.

    Ok guys here's my problem.

    3-4 times a week some little shits think it would be fun to bang on my shed/windows and doors, waking me and my partner up, and scaring the crap out of us in the process.

    its becoming more frequent and they think they can get away with it, and its something i dont think the cops would care about.

    i have sensor lights and everything installed, i live in a duplex and my neighbour has the same problem with the same kids, they could be no older than 14-15.

    last night i heard the kids and leaped out of bed and almost caught them down the street while i was yelling butt naked....(it was cold)

    but my question is, what can i do to scare these kids into stop doing this? ive thought about staying up late to try and catch em and threaten them with a few words? but yeah want to keep things legal.

    Dan.

    They do it to get a reaction. Lights come on and you peer out of the window or run out into the street which is exactly what they want. No reaction and they will get bored and move on.

    Best thing to do it to keep ringing the police, or do what my dad did once (When I was younger, I was riding my bike and these kids were yelling and swearing at me for some reason) & follow them home or back to wherever they are, and if it's their parent's place, knock on their door and tell them to stop otherwise you'll take it further.

    But I'd either ring the police every night that it happens and demand they come down the next night, or wait for them and give them a few good reasons not to come back, and be very persuasive. But hide your face.

    Or find out where they live, and tell their parents that if they do it again you'll file a harrassment claim.

    I would try the cops first, without success advise them you may need to take matter into their own hands.

    I would rig up a sprinkler system either fill it with fishemulson or fish oil fertiliser to fertilise your "garden", or fill it up with blue dye to smurf the little Fu2kers.
    If its cold or if you can keep the wall of the shed cold spray super glue all over the wall when their warm hands bang on the wall they wont be going anywhere.

    If its a metal shed see if you can insulate the wall from the rest of the shed then hook up an electric fence energiser to it and let the shed bite back

    Yeah I like the electric fence idea. Put a massive sign saying "SHED ELECTRIFIED AT NIGHT" So they can definitely see it. Then, because they are idiots, they will test the theory and zap - nothing that will kill them or anything, just hurt like hell.

    If your shed is metal, hook it up to the mains so it electrocutes the when they touch it

    OP, you have a picture of pedobear as your DP.... and you're having a problem with kids harassing you (should it not be the other way around?).






























    anyways....... I'm not too far away from you. I'm young and I run 11's in 100m. Pay me $2000 dollars and I will wait in the bushes, beat them to a pulp, make them beg for their life and then take their thumbs...

    You could pull an old man Herbert from Family Guy, invite them in for wine and some icey poles?

    Take pictures, keep a record, hand to police. If it were me i would follow them home, you can bet their parents won't want to be dragged away from the meth pipe to deal with responsibly raising their children.

    Remove the lights, stick some barbed wire around the shed so they cant see it, follow the blood trail back to their house and get the cops onto them for trespassing? (kidding of course...)

    have said shed be blown into outer space by said idea due to short circuiting if earthed. (or switchboard blown).

    i hope you catch them, and hopefully it can be something funny. eg when they tap on windows something falls on them like flour, sticky syrup and feathers? =P
    how about we make the pedals out of sticky rubber and the shoes with steel spikes. at least my shins would like that

    Infrared camera? Or even a fake one, somewhere they can see it, might be enough to make them stop. the only was to get them to stop
    is to scare them, be it police, or you could hire a 400lb african american body guard?

    Wait, I got a great idea! How about you hook the shed, to the mains! Seriously, it's JEENYUS.

    hahah, some good ideas here guys.

    but my mate brought me over a paintball gun last night with 100 bullets. i took the fly screen off my bed room window because its looks straight out to the driveway (would never make it running to the front door) so when they come banging i slide my window open and have some fun

    we used the gun on each other last night for a bit of fun, its not the most powerfull one but enough to leave a bruise.

    also there is a cop who comes into work sometimes so i told him about my kid problem and told him i had a paint ball gun and he laughed and said good luck haha.
