Dear Anon,

Yes, in my opinion and personal experience, bamboo; is certainly NOT NICE to have at the back and side yards.

Equally, it is not a `neat' and `tidy' plant as it sprouts shoots and can easily harbour snakes...

It would not be ideal to bury coins, but rather, if you want, string 6 coins with red string and tie it on a stalk of bamboo.

For the pointed sha qi towards the window, the easiest cure is to hang curtains i.e. day curtains or even simply curtains would be acceptable.

I am not too sure about using the Christmas tree star... but u could try thou. Alternatively plant or tree outside the window would be a good alternative.

Alternatively, if there is a shelf that faces out of the window, you can use for example a dragon facing out of the window. An alternative is the more potent ... cannon. (Again facing out of the house).

Warmest Regards,
Cecil
