It is a tradition here now; nothing useful or positive to contribute, so blame the OP, make it all his own fault.
That did make me laugh as that is the nail hit on the head! 
I don't mean that it is the OPs fault but that's some on PH will deem it.

To be fair, if the neighbour is knocking out 7+ (potentially ASBO) kids then the future does look a bit Grimsby. Moving would be a good option. Unless they are renting in which case maybe some other tactics which I wouldn't condone or even elaborate on.Ok- serious advice. I’ve had decades of dealing with the terminally stupid on housing estates.
Of course its lot easier as a landlord to deal with people behaving like this, because you can knock on their door and ask “WTF are you doing” or gentler words to that effect. Ultimately you can take their home from them too. Of course the “get out of jail free card” of 7 children helps somewhat- a judge will think twice about making such a family homeless.
You can’t win with stupid, moronic people. Some people spend their lives looking for a fight, its their reason for living.
If this person is passing at a regular time, you could as suggested, set a lawn sprinkler to wet the fence, boundary or pavement.
If moron quizzed you about it, you could say, face to face- “well it’s to clean my garden- I’ve a problem with a person spitting in my garden, don’t suppose you know who it is?”
OR, again if it’s at a regular time- be in your garden, gardening; smile, be pleasant, say hello.
In my experience, when stupid, angry people are looking for a fight, when you are polite, friendly and do not retaliate, they often don’t know what to do.
I think this is because they live in a world where the default action is, to fight/argue.
But its horrible to be happening and I hope you get it resolved.
We had similar. Fat bloke used to pull up next to our house every morning for his chainsmoking session before work, consisting of half a dozen fag ends and countless clearing of throat and gobbing out of the window. I snapped fairly quickly. Steel capped boots and thick winter coat on, deep breath, told him to do one otherwise I'd rip his head off. Luckily he didnt kill me and I never saw him again.
Vile.

It doesn't sound good but then it doesn't mean that someone isn't letting their property to a housing association. I live in a nice area, all privately owned places yet one of the bungalows round the corner I can only assume was rented out via the council as a young girl appeared in there with a couple of kids. She was a bit chavvy but inoffensive but some of her guests were scummers.
She eventually moved and some people live there now who I've barely seen so even in a nice area you can't guarantee that a place won't get rented out.
t if someone with 7 kids is your neighbour ewwwww.robbocop33 said:
I like that!The misses does put a lot of effort into the garden,its a corner house and the garden's quite large.Mostly private houses in the street,non council but a few of them being let out to anyone basically.
It is,well was a nice area,seems to be a popular misconception here that people in posh areas don't spit?
Do you all have the saliva sucked out your mouth with a little tube,saved into a colostomy type bag,then save it up for the little street urchin on the corner to give your brogues a bit of spit and polish(obviously your Gin soaked phlegm will be better than the urchins gruely phlegm on Italian leather!)
God,how the other have live! ;-),every area can have it's idiots,believe me!
OP, spitting is not normal behaviour, it's disgusting. It is,well was a nice area,seems to be a popular misconception here that people in posh areas don't spit?

What am I missing?
Next time he grebs in your garden run out of your house bare chested, covered in crumbs from eating cereal out of the box wearing nothing but y fronts and motorcross boots and hit him right in the cheekbone with a ball pein hammer whilst ranting about horses having stolen your car. He'll not bother you again.
