Neighbour hoovers everyday

[paintthetown]

We live in a semi detached bungalow and our next door neighbour (single woman) hoovers every single day without fail. It only lasts 10-15 minutes and is usually in the evening around 6-7pm. AIBU to find it annoying? I can’t understand why someone would need to hoover that much unless they have kids or pets (she has neither)

Do you have kids? Have you ever given them a packet of crisps?

For sure there is no need to hoover that often if there are no pets or small children. But if it makes her happy its no biggie. Maybe go for a walk at that time if its really that much of a bother. Or do something else, somewhere else.
Come visit me if you like - you can "enjoy" my neighbours parties that go on until dawn o'clock.

I hoover 2-3 times a day. I have a toddler and carpet.

OP, you’re the problem here, not your neighbour.

Behave

I hoover downstairs daily at least once.
Bedrooms every other day
Stairs weekly
Kitchen and bathroom floors daily
I just like it clean. Takes literally 10 minutes

I live in a terraced old house. I dont hear next door so dont even know of they hear us. I also put wash on at 5am and hang it out by 6am. Glad your not my neighbour though

There is as much need as people want

You'd hate it here, DH hoovers constantly. He'll hoover you if you stop still long enough 😂

Yes, you are very unreasonable.

I hoover twice a day 🙀
YABU to moan about brief daytime cleaning. Get a life.

I thought you were going to say an hour everyday at 6am

i'm a hairy fecker and single so I obviously have cats as mandated on these threads. I don’t have carpets but like a good sweep every evening

You'll just have to suck it up I'm afraid.

You are being very unreasonable

That's such a cruel thing to do.

YABU

She's not doing it at an unreasonable time and not for long. What is your problem.

I hoover downstairs everyday!

I have a friend who vacuums 3 times a day. I vacuum 3 times a week (sometimes).

I used to vacuum when the children were in bed as we had a very small living area. Both became great sleepers through any noise.

You’d hate me then. I hoover twice a day everyday. Usually at 8am and about 7pm. Good job I’m detached!

@paintthetown i have to say I had to re read your post. I thought you said she hoovered at 6/7am. Which I understand could be annoying as not everyone are early risers. But in this case. You are being very unreasonable.

Once upon a time, when I was new to running my own house and therefore incredibly houseproud, I hoovered every day before going to work, so that the house - MY house - was pristine for my return.

Now I'm older and far more slatternly, it's lucky if I hoover once a quarter week.

YABU.

Sometimes we hoover twice a day OP, don’t move in next to us

I think the mention of the single status of the neighbour implies that she lives alone and therefore makes OP question why the daily hoovering.

If you had a nice lightweight vacuum cleaner, it’s not a chore to use it every day. You also need to keep on top of dust mites.

You would hate being our neighbour, admittedly we have kids and a lot of animals but I hoover twice a day and send the robotic around 3 more times. Kind of necessary here if we don't want to be trailing hair, seed and feathers around the place.

If I didn't have pets I would still hoover once a day, I thought everyone did - what about the dust and mud you bring in on your clothes / the crumbs from food / teeny tiny particles from opening packages or sharpening pencils? Everyone makes floor dust, wouldn't it feel manky underfoot if you didn't lift it daily?

The spider was trespassing it was me or him
