Noisy neighbors are very boring. They can interrupt your sleep and work. You just need to find a peaceful way to politely ask them to stop.
STEPS
- Don't go to them the first time they let out a little sound. These sounds have to continue at least for a week or two to ask them to stop.
- Ask a parent to go to your neighbors if you're under 18. Not everyone listens to children or teenagers.
- Make sure they have been noisy less than an hour ago.
- Make sure you go to them on a reasonable time of the day. Nobody would like to be woken up at 3 am, unless they are being noisy at that time.
- Dress up nicely and be friendly to them when you ring at their door. Politely ask them to
- Lower their voice (or TV, or stereo) because you are tryng to sleep or work.
- Excuse yourself for interrupting their activities if they say they will. and don't forget to wish them a good day. After all, neighbors need to cooperate.
- Return at home if they get upset, but if they continue being noisy, return to them again, not mad, but not as polite as before.
- Ask them again this way if they are yet again irritated by saying: "I'm sorry, I am working/sleeping and would like some peace, I was not telling you to shut up, excuse me!", but keep on the peaceful side.
- If they will not stop, call the police.
- Go to them in your pajamas if they're having a crazy party at night! You have the full right to!
TIPS
- Do not get into a war with your neighbor. Don't be noisy yourself to irritate your neighbor! You are a civil person, don't get down to his/her level.
- While waiting for the police, earplugs can be a great help in the meantime.
- Maybe it's not your neighbors being noisy, it's you being too quiet!
Warnings
- If you live in a dangerous neighborhood and your neighbors are criminals and make extremely loud sounds, don't go over there! Immediately call the police.
- If your neighbor hurts you physically, call the police!
- Spousal or domestic abuse should always be reported to the police. If the noise is indeed a fight the police should be called. You should only attempt to go over if you suspect someone is in immediate danger of being hurt!
