10 Times Wind Chimes Turned Neighbors Into Enemies

9 / 10

All Stuffed Up

Back in 2009, Nancie Saphara and her husband William were very annoyed with their neighbors’ wind chimes keeping them up at night. “I sleep with a pillow over my head, of course my husband doesn’t,” said Nancie. “He tried regular ear plugs, then he switched to wax ear plugs, and we’ve taken Tylenol P.M.”

The neighbors were reported to have about 20 wind chimes, hanging from trees, gutters and even a few in the garage.

The wind-chime-loving neighbors, Maurice and Robert Walawender said the noise was barely noticeable, and refused to take down the wind chimes. The Sapharas response was not too kind.

“They did take it upon themselves to come over here, take our wind chimes down, tape them together, stuffed the tubes with cotton, and put them in a box in their garage,” said Maurice.

There’s no word on the outcome of this dispute. Here’s how to eliminate 23 annoying house noises.
