Very kid friendly neighborhood, lots of sidewalks, parks, etc. My house backs up to a street that has an adjacent sidewalk. Recently, teens and kids have started biking through my yard to get to the road/sidewalk, even though the bike path and trails are less than 1/5 mile away. They're starting to ruin my yard, and fences aren't allowed due to HOA regulations. How do I deal with this? I was thinking about putting down nails, but that can mess up my lawnmower. Ideas? Help!

Contact the HOA and ask them what you *can* do to stop the traffic. Complain that it's ruining your yard and they shouldn't be trespassing on your property in the first place. HOA members are usually pretty much jerks when it comes to someone breaking the HOA rules. I'm sure they would be all over this (those little old ladies love nothing more than enforcing stupid rules on people, especially kids).
And, don't put down anything like a nail strip. If one of the kids gets hurt, you will be liable.
