One Small Town’s Hilariously Ingenious Revenge on Public Urinators

“It’s peeback time” for public urinators.

In the St. Pauli quarter of Hamburg, Germany, local residents decided to take action against the flood of public urination in their streets.

To fight back, community organizers, using a superhydrophobic coating that repels liquid, have targeted the walls in alleys and other areas where most of the offenses occur, so that anyone who sprays that wall will instantly be sprayed back. One local woman warned, “it’s peeback time” for anyone who chooses to use a wall as a toliet.
