I thought that it would just make the situation worse also. The first day
we put it up, the neighbors came out of their house and yelled at us.
Then after that all was quiet, no more problems. They will get over it,
plus you are also protecting your livestock and land from preditors (woods
on 3 sides). It's a win-win situation.

and dogs, kids, etc. were able to get through again.

Yeah, me too. But since we moved out here to Oregon (originally from
Wisconsin), most properties are protected by 'lead' survelliance. Kinda
makes you not trespass at all. ;o)
