A FRUSTRATED woman has moaned about her next-door-neighbour’s “disgusting” garden.
Not only is the garden so overgrown that it’s an eyesore from Michaela Packer’s window, but according to this annoyed woman, who is from the UK, the overgrown shrubs are ruining her fences.

According to Michaela Packer, not only is the woman next door ignoring her, but it’s also caused her £150 of damage to her fences too[/caption]
And that’s not all, as well as her neighbour ignoring her, also, as a result of the damage done to her fences, she has had to fork out £150 to fix them.
Clearly very irritated by the situation, Michaela took to social media to show off her neighbour’s outside space, leaving many gobsmacked.
But Michaela’s clip has caused a reaction she may not have expected – as rather than agreeing and complaining about the mess, many people encouraged Michaela to “mind her business” and “help” her neighbour clean up the overgrown space.
Posting online, Michaela gave her followers a close-up look at the garden next door to hers, as she said: “I have been round, knocked on this lady’s door several times and have had no response.
“I often see her out, so I don’t know why she’s not answering the door to me.
“I feel that the state of this garden is disgusting – my fencing is coming down because of the weight of the stuff that is in the garden.”
Michaela acknowledged that she has tried her “hardest” to knock on the door and get a decent response, but she has had “nothing.”
She then snapped and claimed: “She’s got no mental health issues, she’s a young woman with a child, she has a partner, so there is no excuse at all.
“I’ve had to fork out £150 for new fencing on the front, so me putting this video up is just showing that someone can live like this, just due to pure laziness.”
The TikTok clip, which was posted under the username @michaelapacker2, has clearly left many open-mouthed, as it has quickly racked up 262,800 views in just three days.
Not only this, but it’s also amassed 1,783 likes, 1986 comments and 152 shares.
But social media users were gobsmacked by Michaela’s reaction to her neighbour’s garden and many flocked to the comments to share their thoughts on the situation.
One person said: “So glad I don’t live next door to you.”
Another added: “How do you know that she does not have mental health? Anxiety and depression is hidden well! There could be problems behind the front door.”
I think you should go clean it for her because maybe she has a lot going on in her life

A third commented: “Neighbours need to mind their own business tbh.”
Meanwhile, someone else questioned: “Why don’t you offer to help her?”
Whilst another advised: “I think you should go clean it for her because maybe she has a lot going on in her life.”
At the same time, one user observed: “Looks like a nice wildlife garden. Good for her.”
