Wild peeing has been a problem here for a long time. But in recent years, it got worse, next week, we are also planning to paint the problem area around 'Zur Ritze' (nightclub) and put up the signs. But owners obviously have to approach us because we can't just run around painting someone else's building.

We tried to analyze the problem and come up with a solution, we were especially interested in coming up with an idea that would be suitable for this quarter.

This paint job sends a direct message back to perpetrators that their wild urinating on this wall is not welcome, the paint protects the buildings and the residents and most importantly it sends a signal this behavior is not on.

If you compare the work involved for daily cleaning of the mess and the awful smell, as well as all the collateral damage involved, it has definitely been well worth it.
