(NEXSTAR) – Well, this stinks. The owner of a home in Michigan says he’s fed up with the smell of a “poop wall” that his neighbor has been building near his property.

Wayne Lambarth of Lodi Township claims that his neighbor, a farmer, began using cow manure to construct the wall sometime last year, after a dispute over a property line that divides their land, Fox 2 Detroit reports.

Prior to the dispute, Lambarth says his neighbor would spread the manure over his own farmland. Now, however, the manure has been built into a dung-based divider that extends 250 feet in length.


It’s not just Lambarth and his neighbor that are currently caught in the smelly crossfire, either. Lambarth has two tenants living in his home, both of whom are sick of the sight — and smell — of the farmer’s feces fence, they tell Fox 2 Detroit.

Unfortunately, local officials don’t have a whiff of good news for Lambarth. As long as the manure remains on his neighbor’s property, Lambarth can’t do much about it.

The farmer, meanwhile, doesn’t seem to care what Lambarth or his tenants think of his poop wall — he’d just prefer they stop calling it a “poop wall.”

“It’s not a poop wall,” he remarked when asked about the manure, Fox 2 Detroit reports. “It’s a compost fence.”

God damn mongolians, tear down my chitty wall....

He’s fortunate the farmer hasn’t gotten angry and put in a pig lot by the wall.

Heh, a Compost Fence.

He could also plant a field of ragweed upwind of the neighbors too. Returning fields to native species are de rigueur these days so he could probably get some federal or state money for his conservation efforts.

This whole story seems like a crock of shit.

Prolly wouldn't be so objectionable if the construction wasn't so crappy.

That’s hilarious!

I wonder if he’s related to the UK farmer who liked to spray protesters/trespassers on his land with liquid shit. Maybe his cousin?

This is a real shit show.

I predict with the stuff happening in this state soon we will soon nose out Florida as being the home of the strange.

Has anyone noticed that Michigan might be overtaking Florida in the news, lately?


ETA - drat! SH beat my by that much

It’s the warming weather. Our idiot season runs year round whereas our northern brethren only come out after the thaw. Maybe bad decisions are a side effect of vitamin D, like nature’s Jack Daniels.

I'd top it all with a chicken barn vented toward the neighbor. That's a special kind of stink.
