Our boxes and post(s) are between our house and the neighbors'. We also planted moule grass on our side and left the front open so it could be accessed, because our landscaper (Jamie) said the utility company was "giving them hell" about covering the front of them. I think by next fall the grass will have grown quite a bit. It doesn't get as tall as pampas grass, but another landscaper told us "critters" like to nest in the pampas grass because of the shelter it gives down at the ground, being so thick a plant. I don't know about that, but grasses seem like one good solution.
