Bill, not sure now where you are but Leyland Cypress grow very fast compared to some other trees and help. I can tell with the thin line of hardwoods around our house when the leaves fall the noise bounces more. Could also be the fields are normally smooth with no crop then also helps the sound bounce. Anything that helps break the sound waves should help. May not be that noticable to the ear though.

Bill, if the sound is an issue only when you are in the shop or outside working...they make a nice headset with radio built in. Sells for between $50 to about $100 depending on the brand and such. Cuts out their noise and give you something you may like. Sure did enjoy mine until my wife happened to use them.

Murf, how about southern neighbors? We sort of like BBQ a lot!
Why is the best method is the one use after the others fail?

Bill, just wondering, have they been doing this long or did they just get four wheeler for Christmas. If like most people such gets old and they move on. Be careful as you don't want to give them the idea they have a great place for others to meet and ride.

Part of the reason I am asking this, my mother in law's neighbors got dirt bikes for Christmas. Two teenagers. Their yard is 3/4 acre. You can guess the track around the yard. Good thing the dad also does landscapping.

I do understand what you are up against. There are two boys on either side of me that have four wheelers. The ones on the open side I can hear very easy (that is the tree line that losses it leaves) with open trees and no crop in the fields to help break the sound waves. They are about a 1/4 mile away. The part I like, they are right next to my brother in law...hehehehe so I find some humor in the noise making it easier to bear.

I think the back up alarm on a piece of equipment must be one of the hardest noises to ignore. Know a person who had a problem neighbor (he complain about everything he did at his shop). Said it is funny the complaining stopped when he "forgot" to turn off a backup alarm on that neighbor's side of his shop one weekend.
