In a world of petty revenges, this girl got hers with the bare minimum work.

All she had to do was some talking!

Find out how this girl got rid of her neighbor’s annoying berry tree that was over property lines.

Neighbor eavesdrops and I win.

My neighbor is an idiot and we have been having issues with her from the start.

6 hour relentless dog barking four days a week for years, yelling at me for stealing water flowing downhill, dead rabbit on the door step, the usual property line arguments, emptying her toxic hot tub onto our property, lying by the hedges to spy on us, parties, noise, etc, ad nauseum.

The neighbor was a nuisance.

Just run of the mill bad neighbor stuff.

Eventually we built a giant fence and it has kept the her to a minimum.

Both yards have plenty of mature trees.

We have 3 maples over 150 yrs old and a nearly 100yr old birch, a 12 foot cedar hedge; add that to the giant fence and daylight is at a minimum in our backyard in the summer.

They had their shares of the trees.

Idiot neighbor had 2 century old trees and a very mature mulberry tree that hung over the fence in the only area that enjoys direct sunlight.

Now, this part is entirely our fault: One spring we built a patio there – with light grey stone. The mulberry tree has dark purple fruit and her’s is extremely prolific.

The week construction was finished was the week the berries ripened and began to drop in the slightest breeze.

The berries became more problematic…

Sitting out there for any length of time and you would be pelted with berries leaving purple stains like you were shot with a paintball and sweeping a path was the only way to not step on them.

If this only lasted for a few weeks it would be tolerable but mulberries are in season all summer.

The amount of birds that feasted on the fruit and promptly deposited bright purple bird poop on everything we owned outside was unbelievable.

It got MESSY!

Purple bird poop drip dried everywhere on the patio and beyond. We started putting tarps over the entire patio to collect the bird dung coated berries and emptying them into a bucket every time we wanted to use the patio.

Remembering our neighbor’s penchant for eaves dropping I began to talk about mulberry wine.

She was clever!

About how good my mulberry wine was and how this year’s bumper crop of mulberries was going to make so much wine and how we were going to go on vacation with all the money I was making from selling my mulberry moonshine.

Visitors joined in the act, claiming they could not wait for their allotment of my fabulous mulberry wine and offering bribes to be moved up the list.

I do not make mulberry wine, never have and would not start with mulberry-bird poop wine.

UH OH…

One rainy early summer night I heard and felt a tremendous crash.

I ran into the backyard – the largest limb from the mulberry tree was lying in my backyard.

A chainsaw was sputtering on the other side of my giant fence – the mulberry tree was coming down – at night – in a rainstorm (more evidence of her idiocy).

The neighbor got a little too carried away!

There was a bit of yelling back and forth through the fence – me about her being a dangerous and her to me about having a nice vacation without having mulberry wine to sell.

She continued to cut down the whole tree instead of just the limbs hanging over our property.

I laughed myself into the house, not quite believing my ruse worked so well and revenge was finally mine but that poor tree died needlessly.

Revenge story or sad story?

Barely a month later a viscous storm blew through our area, splitting one of her mature trees in half and damaging the other so badly it had to be removed.

Now the idiot has no trees but all mine are still standing.

Why couldn’t the annoying neighbor just get rid off the berries intruding this girl’s space?

Yikes! That was berry dramatic!
