WIBU to have another word with noisy neighbours

Hi
We live in a semi detached house in a residential area, lots of families and kids. Our next door neighbours are a retired couple and their adult sons who live with them. I would say they are about 5-10 years older then we are, and we are late twenties.
The sons seem to live upstairs, and we’ve not had much of a problem until recently - every single night they are shouting, blaring music out so much I feel like it’s in the room. The problem is their walls are adherent to our toddler sons bedroom and they are constantly waking him up so that some nights I am up and down with him all night and knackered the next day. OH went round and politely spoke to the mother who was lovely about it and said she would have a word. She did, because the music was turned down that night however for the last five nights it’s been even worse than it previously was.
A package of ours was delivered to their house on Friday, the parents are away but the ‘kids’ are in - we have been round six times to collect it but they won’t answer the door (lights are on and music blaring through my son’s room again so we know they are in)
So... I want to go round and speak to the mother again (politely) when she returns from her break away, my DH thinks that it will just cause more hassle and they will become even worse than they already are and to just grin and bear it! Any thoughts for a very sleep deprived mama at the end of her tether???

You need to keep speaking to the parents every time the noise disturbs you.

Start noting down times that the music and shouting can be heard.

Don't let it keep happening!

That’s what I think - it’s going on until 4am most nights, I don’t know how their parents bear it! I guess DH doesn’t want awkward relations with the neighbours but it’s really rather rude.
Did think of blasting CBeebies at 5am when my son gets up Grin but really that’s not fair on the mum and dad who’ve done nothing wrong (unless they secretly join in the all night raves!!)

I would record it for her coming back otherwise they will deny it.
