I'd continue to politely request that the parents control their children, padlock the gate, post no trespassing signs and finally alert the police.  If you are absent during these trespasses, hopefully you can enlist your other neighbor to make the call.  At the very least they should send a patrol car.  Your privacy is being violated and it is an issue you have every right to stand up for and expect no retaliation.  I would also suggest to the parents that your property may have hazards on it and you would be stricken should a child be injured on it.  BE careful not to sound threatening, but more like an ocd individual.

Set some ground pepper around their area and they'll stay in...if you want to kill them I swear by Windex or if you have a baby and worry about fumes try pure vinegar and it'll work, too!

I think it's technically a federal offense because you're tampering with the postal service.  I'd stick it on a door if anything.  I think the better thing to do is confront the neighbor yourself rather than allowing your daughter to write the letter.  If she's already done it, you should go over to the neighbor and discuss it like adults.  Perhaps your daughter shouldn't have shoveled snow wherever, but you've raised your children a certain way and would appreciate it if they didn't use cusswords around her/towards her.  If the neighbor can't be reasoned with, just ignore them from now on.

traps on your property. catch a couple of them and the owners might keep them closer to their own home.

Have the kids pick up their own toys and put them away.  Make a game of it, set a timer, or sing songs while you do this.

Call CPS and ask for custody... the only way to help them is remove them from the household.

i know one, first find out their leader. then appoint the leader of those kids to be the guardian of your property, you just need a lot of persuading to do. at least you only need to  persuade one. if you cant find the leader, just look for the biggest and meanest kindergarten you'll find and appoint him to be your guardian!! hehe that'll work!

You need to post no hunting signs, no trespassing signs will work but the trespassors will only be charges with trespassing, if you have no hunting signs I believe the charges are tuffer. \n\nPost the  yellow no hunting signs clearly on your property line and it should keep them out. \n\nYou could go find where they are parking and get the plate number and call it into the police. Have the police come to your property and catch them if they run they can have a backup unit waiting at their cars to arrest them. If it is after dark and you live in texes just shoot them, lol

This is a serious answer, I am not kidding or makeing this up: Piss all over your yard! Old experts, and people who live in the wild, all say that ,that will keep all animals away from your outside area. I found out that it works! A couple of years ago we lived by this rotten man who hated animals and he set out this big cage, (live trap) to catch all kinds of animals. I once asked what does he do with them and he said he turns them loose miles away at some park, well I wasn't sure if I believed him or not. Different nights I would see things in the cage, like: opossums, racoons, and even some cats, and I would sneek in his yard around 3AM and let those poor animals loose, then unset the damn trap so no others could be caught that night. Well he got smart, and put a padlock on his fence, even though he never knew how the animals were escaping. The next night, I saw 4 baby racoons in the cage crying for their momma, who was outside the cage talking to them and biteing at it trying to get to her babies, well no way was I gonna stand for that, so I climbed the fence, freed the babies, who all ran with their mother into the woods, unset the cage and went home. It was at that time, that I remember hearring about putting urine all over your area to keep animals away and the next day I took all day filling up an old masson jar full of my urine. Well that night, I climbed the fence again and splashed urine all over that cage, then I poured some all over his yard, in places under the fence where the animals were comming in, and would you believe it, no animals were ever caught in that damn cage again! It really worked! A couple of days later, the cage was removed for good and he was filling in those places under his fence. He never caught anymore animals and I was able to get some sleep at night cause I no longer had to worry about the trapped animals! I know it sounds gross and embarressing, but the urine does really work!

You need to call city hall and get the number to the Code Enforcement division.  Every city has a Code Enforcement office, lodge a complaint and they will send an inspector to do an investigation.  If there are violations then your neigbors will be cited and asked to make the adjustments necessary to avoid further violations.  They keep it confidential and will not tell your neighbors who reported them to avoid any possible retaliations.\n\nI had to once report a family who was housing another family in their garage.  My only concern was that there were small children and infants residing in a cold poorly isolated conditions.  It basically forced their parents to seek proper living conditions.\n\nBelieve me, my way is the safest and the legal way to go about things.

My suggestions: Invite your neighbors over for lunch, or out on a picnic, and tell them your concerns. Ask them what they would do in your situation. Try to make it as friendly and non-combative as possible. \n\nPlant hedges along the fence, or better yet, flowers bushes. The hedge alone would deflect a lot of the odor. Night-blooming jasmine grows around my bedroom window. It's delicious. \n\nGet an air purifier to use near your bed. That would help a lot.\n\nPut a fan in or near your window, blowing out. Spray Arm & Hammer's air freshener around your window.\n\nLast but not least, be glad you have five dogs nearby to help protect your property. You'll never know, but their presence may have saved your family from burglaries, rape, even murder. \n\nYou sound like a patient person. Just give a little, compromise where you can. And good luck.
