64. Your friend: stink bait....
I am not a fisherperson, but became acquainted with stink-bait when I had an office with parking spaces near the door because we had delivery people in and out all day. I paid dearly for those spaces, too.

Another business on the second floor had people who would routinely park in the spaces. I tried talking to management, to the other tenants, putting up "your car will be towed" signs, etc., and it didn't do shit.

Then a young woman who worked for me told me how she had solved the problem at the condos where she lived.

One night when she came home after midnight (she worked second shift), there was that damned BMW parked there again. So she had her boyfriend's fishig tackle in her trunk from the previous weekend's outing. She went and got the stink bait and smeared it all over the driver's side door handle.

The next morning she got up early to watch him enter his car. He unlocked the car, got inside, started the car, adjusted the mirror, etc....all the things we do when we get in our cars to go some place.

Then he smelled his fingers....

If you know stink bait, you know how putrid it is. And it's oil-based so it lasts FOREVER.

The guy never parked in that space again.

So the next time the tenants in our office building parked in our spaces, I went out and christened their doorhandles---ALL of them.

That was the end of the problem.

If you know where this guy parks, you might want to give him a little introduction to the joys of fish-bait.
