Today, my neighbors left for their nine month excursion, and armed their security system. One of the features is a loud series of three beeps every three seconds, 24 hours a day. I can hear it, clear as a bell, throughout my entire house. FML

That just makes no bloody sense. I say call the cops and have them stop it. It's just plain ******* ridiculous . These are obviously the type of people who don't care about anybody but themselves. It's must be driving your other neighbours crazy as well.

If it were me, I would start by seeing if there is a sign in their window or yard with their security company's name/phone number, then calling them to explain the issue (there might be a setting they can alter remotely. If no joy, then I would try raising the neighbors (not first b/c they are distant and therefore likely impotent), to see if they have a relative w/keys or etc who could assist. If not an option or unhelpful, then yes I would involve law enforcement to assist, on three grounds: 1) yes, nuisance/disturbing the peace -- illegal 2) to do a "wellness check" because that's NOT normal, so may be an actual problem 3) yes, could be either a dying/malfunctioning fire alarm , so could be a dangerous situation (even if no fire now, if the alarm dies then if there is a shorted wire or such in the nine mos, no alert). Good luck!

I would file a noise complaint, police should come ASAP and do something about it

Now this is where a rocket launcher would come in handy.

A brick through the window would fix this problem. The alarm company would have to come out and deactivate it.

You got nine month to prepare your vengeance then

How can it possibly be loud enough to be constantly bothersome? Could you be overreacting?
