Neighbours oil slick

[skinned33]

AIBU to expect my neighbour to clean up their mess. Their car has leaked something that has now spread over to our side. I'm not happy to have to walk through it or clean it up or to have to ask them to clean it up. I'd be mortified if I had done this to them.

Have you asked them to clean it up?

Pretty easy to sort -ask them to get some granules that soak it up. Cat litter also works well. If they are reasonable neighbours they should sort it out.

If they were reasonable they would of already cleaned it up.

Don't get how people can be so thoughtless.

It's hard to tell from the pics but going by the pretty colours it looks like diesel and calling it a "slick" seems a bit strong. It doesn't look like much. It'll wash away soon enough. Even a small amount of diesel landing on an already wet road can look like a larger amount than it really is.

It genuinely looks like the very smallest amount of fuck all

Can barely see anything chill out!! There's always oil patches on the road outside ours. It just disappears on its own. They're not from my cat but I wouldn't even think about cleaning it up if it was

If that's diesel it will be very slippery. A couple of buckets of hot water and detergent chucked over it should sort it.

They probably didn't see it - due to the lack of injured guillemots and dead fish.

Its a wee bit of oil

It really doesn't look like much, but if it really bothers you then have a chat with them.
