| If
you live with a neighbor's flood light or a street light shining into your
window, you already know what light trespass is. Chances are, you probably
don't like it. Light that trespasses onto neighboring property is annoying,
wastes energy and obscures the night sky.
You can reduce
lighting trespass by:
- Aiming
lights down
- Choosing
fixtures with hoods
or visors that control light
- Installing
motion sensors
to turn lights off automatically when thay are not needed
- Using
the correct wattage fixture. If
70 watts will do, why use 400? Lighting should not be overly bright
in relation to the surrounding area.

Path Lights, Cutoff
