Really, Honestly??? They aren't pretty, just loud noises. We have one rooster near by and one donkey. Both have been so upset that they haven't stopped sounding for over an hour.

I'm not going to mention the one dog under the bed and one wearing a thundershirt.

You don't even live here. Do it where you live!!!!!

Please, come here, visit, spend your money, enjoy our paradise. BUT be respectful of those who live here!!!

Sorry you're having to go through that. I hope you'll report them to 911 or Seguridad Pública.

It started this morning at 7:30 also. WTH? Even I was startled all last night. It's ridiculous.

If you can find Sileo down there, it is very effective for noise aversion. One of our dogs actually watched fireworks after he had it. The only downside is that it works best when given around 45 minutes before the event.

I'm finding an injectable version for humans, but not the oral gel that is for dogs. DAMN!!!

Two different uses. The injectable Med in humans is and anti anxiety agent, given by injection it reaches a much higher blood level. The canine oral gel results in a much lower blood level, and act specifically on noise aversion with very few dogs getting sedated. Were you to give it to a dog by injection, it would have to be at a much reduced dose and even then would likely just knock to dog out. For reason I don’t understand the lower blood level that you get from the oral gel only affect hearing and not level of consciousness.

It is quite ridiculous and not fun. One of our dogs has to be allowed into the bathroom so that she can hide behind the toilet. It isn't an enjoyable experience for us humans either.

I so miss the tranquility and respectfulness we used to enjoy in Zihuatanejo. I ache to hear these experiences you all are suffering.

I hope many La Ropa residents are phoning in complaints. That's all you can do. It's an ongoing local discussion we're having as a community, and each instance of a complaint from La Ropa will draw attention to the problem. So can letters to local newspapers and media such as Meganoticias Ixtapa-Zihuatanejo who have live local news programs.

I appreciate your list of phone numbers that you have linked to but I am left scratching my head about who to call. I have made complaints several times to the local police but have a sense that my complaints are written on a piece of paper and then promptly filed in the garbage can next to the desk. Not once has anyone followed up with me to ask further questions or to tell me that they have attended to the problem. Someone decided to build an events venue here near our place that they rent out for weddings/quinceaneras/birthday parties. Music is played at levels that makes it hard to me to enjoy my own music in my home and often is played until sunrise the next day. When I am able to get someone to pick up the phone, which is not often after 7 p.m., it never seems to prompt a timely visit by any authority. It seems that if you don't personally know someone then you are S.O.L. I may just try to go the media route you suggest.

I called one of the other numbers on Rob's list (thanks Rob), seguridad publica, and I received a call. Unfortunately the answer I received is that there is nothing they can do because the restaurant who is doing it has paid for a license to use them and there is not hour limitation. He would not say which restaurant is shooting them off.

The person I spoke with did say that they would pass on my complaint to his superiors. Hopefully something will come of it.
