    light back to him.

    Can't talk to him. Our politely asking him to tilt his halogen security light down so it wouldn't shine in our bedroom window was met with even
    more lights. Along with our other neighbor, we have restraining order against him to stop him from planting a fence across our driveway. One
    day he just decided we didn't have rights to the access easement created
    by the developer of our rural subdivision 26 years ago. We had to remove
    the fence posts as he put them in and now have to spend thousands of
    dollars to have a judge gives us what we already have. Now he is going
    to bombard us with lights. No ordinances in our county against light pollution, though a new law disallows a dog's bark to cross your property line.

    Black out shades will not allow us the pleasure of seeing the sun come up
    in the morning, so we just want to reflect his light back to him. We
    could really use some ideas on how to do this and what material might be
    the most effective.

    We used to live in the suburbs and never had any problems with our
    neighbors. Now we have a bit over 2 acres in the mountains with the opportunity to see the stars in all their glory and we have a neighbor is afraid of bears, of the dark, and of any semblence of a good relationship with neighbors. He just wants power and revenge. We'd like to reflect
    some of that power back to him.

    Thanks for your help.

    I light up the side of my yard, why because my neighbor is nosey, sneaky and complains about everything. I don't see myself as a bad neighbor, I am doing a her a favor. She loves to peak over my fence and at night with my light off, she can't see
    anything. If she complains, I will add more lights!

    I solved that problem several years ago here in this very rural
    setting by shooting out the lights with an air rifle until either the
    utility got tired of replacing bulbs or the obnoxious neighbor gave
    up.

    They had one light positioned directly across the road from our
    picture window. That was the most annoying one of all and the one
    that got the most attention from the pellet gun.

    If you want to look at more letter-of-the-law-more-legal method, check
    out your state and local laws on intentional harassment. Generally a
    person is not allowed to intentionally harass another person.

    I'd also seek a permanent restraining order that prohibits him from
    coming within x number of feet of your property including the easement
    and the restraining order all wrapped up into one legal action.

    Finally, whenever you can video his activities. If yours is a "single
    party state", install "easy voice recorder" android app and record
    every encounter you have with him. If yours is a "2 party state" then
    simply tell him that he's being recorded.
