<div>It just makes me wonder whether the damages for your potential trespass would be less than your damages for continuing to have to mitigate the issue on your property. Just wondering.</div>

<div>Thank you all for your immediate responses. In actuality, the 'individual' is myself. The property next door to mine is being rented out.</div>
<div>The neighbor's blackberry bush likes to climb the fence over into my yard. I gave the property owner a heads up that I was putting significant monies into having the backyard landscaped with new sod this May. I have continued to cut back the bushes on
my side of the fence, but of course they are quite invasive.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>A month ago, I sent images (again) to the property owner, and at her request to the property manager. My messages were acknowledged by both owner and property manager. I asked them to deal with the blackberry bushes to prevent further invasion into my
yard. Nothing was done. Now the bush has flowered and gone to seed. Now I have blackberry bushes growing in a several square foot area of my newly laid sod.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>As the bush originates on the neighbor's property, I believe treating the actual bush/root system would constitute trespass on my part....</div>
