I have just noticed my neighbours have painted their fence. I don't know when but it must be recent. Sophie is on this side of the fence which separates our gardens so was wondering if it could have been this which made her ill. The neighbour did inform me last year that they would be spray-painting the fence and I was worried about it then.

She's really good thank you Zoobec. Funnily enough the neighbours called to me over the fence to say they were painting their side but ok it is water based. So whether they did spray the other fence or not I don't know. I was in the garden while they were doing it and I didn't detect anything in the air.
It might just be coincidence then, if you didn’t detect anything in the air yourself :? It can carry quite a bit, my neighbour painted their side of a high fence and didn’t tell us, and we discovered our cars parked on the drive the other side of the fence were covered in overspray :shock:
Oh dear. Were you able to remove it? The neighbours decided to have a bonfire last night. I rushed to close the windows but it was coming across the garden. Someone shouted something and they put it out. Thank goodness!
