There is one on a property adjacent to mine. It's probably five feet from the property line and overhangs my property. It makes and incredible mess on my lanai and patio. It also fills my gutters with crap and is destroying my lawn by dropping acorns which are turning into little trees. Had I thought about this beforehand I wouldn't have bought this house.
