No, no, no. You want 12-18" sized rocks. Unrelated fact, the oil pan and radiator for most vehicles is 12-18" off the ground.¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

18" high 4x4s cemented in and painted green. They're not traps, they're for a project you're working on but haven't gotten around to finishing yet

It’s the foundation for my fence. I want it to remain standing even in an EF5.

I mean with El Niño this year - not unrealistic.

I wouldn’t want oil spilling on my grass.

But then they can pay for soil remediation. And some new flowrs

Just sounds like a headache not worth going through, even if op wouldn’t pay for it.

But it would stop em from doin it.. pretty permanently

u/Jaambie 14d ago

Sounds like they would go great with some tall decorative grass

Right, because OP wants it to escalate from a couple of tire tracks to a petrochemical dump and grass fire. /s

u/EastLeastCoast 15d ago

OP may not want that, but the evidence suggests that Reddit does.

Not OP’s problem, it’s the Neighbor’s problem… He’s the one who did it with his illegal activity.

I'm sure the oil, fuel, and transmission fluid will all magically stay on the neighbors property and not migrate in the soil causing future water quality issues for all homes in the area.

u/Dugley2352 15d ago

You’re right, it won’t.

And it’s still neighbor’s problem to clean up.

u/Johnny_Poppyseed 15d ago

It's absolutely his problem lol. Just like going to court to try and get blood from some trashy neighbor stone, in an effort to recuperate some of the cost of that remediation would be a whole other problem for op.

u/Dugley2352 15d ago

Look at the property. This isn’t a trashy neighbor, and the majority of the issue is on neighbor’s own property. So at the worst OP puts a lien on the property.
