How to handle a peeping neighbor?

Many a times, I have noticed that our neighbour is very curious about what is happening inside our house. If we are in the backyard, then they would come out and ask a lot of questions regarding our private life. They have a habit of looking through their windows straight into our house. We have blinds and curtains, but sometimes we have to let the light in and they get their chance to peep inside our home. How do you stop them from behaving like this? It is very uncomfortable for us that we got such bad neighbors. Please suggest. Thanks in advance.

Interesting. Can't you just shoo them over politely so that they will get the hint? Or if you feel that they are really infringing on your privacy, just try to be cold to them. I think they will get the hint soon. :P

I would do something funny like hang a sign in the window saying "Hi neighbor are you having fun"? Try that first it may work and you won't have to get ugly with them to make them quit. They probably just don't have enough going on in their own lives to keep them from being nosey.
