this reminds me of a small country town near us. A dairy cattle farm had
been there for years (on the corner lot of the town). New people moved
to town and eventually complained about the odor from the cattle. Went
as far as to take the dairy farmer to court. When it was all over, the
dairy farmer stayed and his cattle. There were established there first.
Residents bought their property knowing full well that the dairy farm
was there.
I notice an odor from our horse lots sometimes after a drenching rain.
I had one neighbor complain about my flies ... bombarding their home.. I
set her straight... with all the fly control I used... there was no way
the flies came from our home. The flies came from a hog farmer.. who
used nothing for fly control.
Very often if someone complains, they are senior citizens... who tend to
grumble and no one can make them happy. Not all seniors are this way though.
I usually call the person... who is complaining about me... and very
sweetly discuss it with them. First time I ever did th is.. the
gentleman was sooooooooooo
embarrassed, basically denied what he has said.
I would talk to them about the rumor... explaining that you do
everything you can to control odors ect... and ask them kindly to let
you know IF they ever detect an odor... I always call any new
neighbors... and ask them to let me know if my dogs bark too much and
annoy them.. never thought of it with manure odor.. however we dont have
anyone directly downwind from us.
