If someone is causing a private nuisance, which is an unreasonable interference with your use or enjoyment of your property, you have two ways to address it: you can file a lawsuit, or you can take steps to directly stop the nuisance.

Section § 3502
If something on someone's property is seriously bothering you, you have the right to get rid of it if it's causing you harm. However, you must do this calmly without starting a fight or causing more damage than needed.
A person injured by a private nuisance may abate it by removing, or, if necessary, destroying the thing which constitutes the nuisance, without committing a breach of the peace, or doing unnecessary injury.

Section § 3503
If a problem on someone else's land is bothering you, and this problem is due to the landowner's failure to act (like ignoring a mess), you can't go onto their property to fix it without first giving them reasonable warning.
Where a private nuisance results from a mere omission of the wrongdoer, and cannot be abated without entering upon his land, reasonable notice must be given to him before entering to abate it.
