My neighbor installed a radon exhaust, it points toward my house.  Should I be concerned for my family?

No, Radon gas is only a problem when it concentrates in an enclosed space like a basement or first floor if built on a slab foundation.  Radon gas seeps into the air from the ground all the time but becomes dispersed into negligible concentrations outdoors.\n\nIf your neighbor has a Radon problem, there is a good chance that you do too. If you haven't already, get a test kit from your state's department of environmental protection and have your house tested as soon as possible.

Superstitious people associate the odor of sulfur with demons or evil spirits because of biblical references to "fire and brimstone".  Brimstone is an archaic word for sulfur.  \n\nMore likely, the sulfur smell in your home could indicate a sewage or ventilation problem.  Has any of this "activity" involved the plumbing in your home (especially the septic system)?  Have you had your radiator/ air conditioner/ duct-work cleaned recently?  Do you have natural gas in your home?  Has the gas system been pressure tested recently?  Do you own a home gas detector or carbon monoxide detector?  Also, rotting fat puts off a smell that's very similar to sulfur.  It's possible that a mouse or other small animal has died inside the walls or attic.  It's not a smell you'd recognize if you've never experienced it.\n\nIn short, a sulfur smell can mean real problems in your home.  Looking for mystical explanations wastes time that you could be using to fix problems before they get worse.  If you're not familiar with home repair, call a house inspector or contractor to give your home a going-over and find the source of that smell.

You may be able to make a criminal complaint against your neighbor, if where you live has a noise ordinance or other regulation concerning noise. You might also have a civil cause of action against your nieghbor and maybe even your landlord. Laws vary by jurisdiction, you should consult a lawyer in your area.

what you could do is exit a different door to your house and put something that can be easily tipped over in front of the other one. then that way if the object was knocked over when you reenter through another door then you would know that the door was opened....or if you don't have another door you could set up something just inside the door that you can set up with only your hand. like as in close most of the door but leave a crack that you stick your hand in and set something up. then when you return and open the door and you don't hear the object fall over then you know that your door has been opened by someone else....in that case i would ask neighbors if they had seen anything suspicious around your house for the past few days....or you could have them keep an eye on your property while you are gone....you could also call the police and tell them whats up and see if they can do more patrols in your area. but i would definitely consider having an alarm system installed you don't need it to call the police when it goes off but just a loud noise to scare anyone away that might try to enter your house.....best of luck to you.

Building department in your county would have that answer.  They vary...but just by the fly it would stand to reason if your neighbor put up a fence then you could set a post right next to his..it's on your property and I don't think there is any setback concerning fencing...

I would report the neighbors for neglect. They obviously are not taking care of the animals if they smell that bad.  Are the dogs coming into your yard?  I don't see how your family is reacting if they are not near the dogs.  I would call animal control and report them.

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.

Radon? If Radon gas has be detected under your house, covering all exposed ground in your crawl space(under the house) with a 5 mill plastic sheeting, then venting the gas from under the sheeting into freash air (PVC piping, Solid drain pipe, etc.) usually will work.  Call a plumber, they usually install a radon vent in new houses, so they will know for sure.

Ok, couple questions here...HOW do they know how you drive?  WHY are you caring for their granddaughter?  HOW do they know what condition the apartment was in? WHOSE apartment was it?  WHY does your friend tell you what they say?  WHY do you care what these evil people think?  Sometimes where there is smoke there is fire...ARE u doing something to piss them off?  Do Not confront them.  This could lead to a physical altercation.  YOU cannot control other people.  Just get over them.  Tell your friend not to report any thing else they say to you.  Perhaps they are upset she is living with you and not them.  My ex's mom was like this.  I was never good enough, pretty enough, smart enough, good enuff mother, etc.  eventually i just figured it out.  It's her.  It's not me.  She's a hater and she was living rent free inside my head.  Every second I spent thinking about what she said or did that hurt me was a second I GAVE her that I could never get back...well, those seconds added up...it became YEARS...do not make this same mistake.  Good Luck

We've been around radio waves for many years, even before you and your parents were born.  There is no harm to the human body.  If you installed a wireless LAN at your house, you will be OK.  With or without it, you will always be surrounded by radio waves.  No worries. :)

Sounds like a stalker setting you up.  I would keep watching out the window.\n\nCoach

If you mean the wind is blowing spray toward & into your house, more fans alone won't help; you should add filtering if possible.  Since most computer fans exhaust, and the intakes are all over the case, maybe it would be easier to put the computer in a small room with a recirculating air purifier (fan & HEPA filter).  This would help preserve the peripherals too.

not much you can do.... get a lawyer, i have easement issues with my neighbor and am currently in a fence war with this meatball. you could contact the electric compnay and see if they have another way to fix it...work with them... but it will be a hard issue to resolve. they use them so that everyone has apower... have to be  there kind of thing... like telephone poles etc. so i dont know what can be done to remove it completely

Tell them "please, I don't need that on my roof." And if you don't know, tell them why they are installing it there. Or you can yall at her/him.

Well, you could spend money on a security system or maybe get to know some of your neighbors maybe they could help you.They might have ideas of who could be behind this.Are you sure this is random?Have you pissed somebody off?

There is definitely such a thing as secondary smoke, where the smoke from someone else's pipe or whatever gets into the air and the other people in the room breathe a small portion of it.  You should either keep the windows open or smoke outside.  On the other hand, maybe you should share . . .
