How noisy? Apartment? Condo? Townhouse? House? In the yard? Inside? How can we help you?
How noisy? Apartment? Condo? Townhouse? House? In the yard? Inside? How can we help you?
Inside your home, hang blankets or quilts on the walls nearest your neighbors. You may have to do this on the walls in different rooms. If you have a big window on “that” side, you should use sheers and drapes to help absorb the noise. Every soft surface in your house (as opposed to metal surfaces) will help absorb noise from outside including your carpets and throw rugs. Outside, if you can temporarily set up trellises, or a clothes line for old sheets or blankets, or any other baffle, it will help with the noise. If you have more specific details, add them and you may get more precise advice. Best wishes, Paula. ☺️
