In any sizeable group of people there are going to be some who ignore rules. Sometimes all it takes is a gentle reminder.

We had just moved in when one morning I found a pile of doggie dung on the grass near the street. I cleaned it up, then went out and bought one of those little signs with a cute little pup on it, urging dog owners to pick up after their pet. It worked. No more poop on the lawn. But two days after I had put it out, I saw that it had been turned around!
