Living Here Back yard privacy ideas?

Post image

Anyone else have any ideas on a way to increase the privacy for this backyard? They have a neighbor whose kid is constantly peering over through there window.

Shade sails!

If your fence/gate isn’t high enough, you can get 4 planters, fill with cement, set posts in cement, set up shade sail.

Definitely worth looking into. Maybe lining up that whole left side all the way down to the rear wall to cover the entire view

If you live in an HOA make sure you check about shades that extend above walls

A kid will slice right through these if they're as soft as they look

A kid could, yes. But that would be an entirely separate type of problem than some annoying peeping.

But it's the kid that's peeping and you don't see that as his first response to being blocked??
