Okay, my boys were trying to get a balloon out of a skylight by shooting a nerf dart at it with tape stuck to the end. The dart missed the balloon and is now on the skylight. The skylight is too high for me, even with our tallest ladder. How do I remove it?? Thanks!

What can I do next?

E.,

It will fall on its own. It will take about 2 to 3 days.

If you are really impatient? Shoot another dart without tape at it...it MIGHT knock it loose!

How about trying to reach a broom up to get it while standing on a ladder?

I'd wait a day or two and see if it falls down on it's own.

Why remove it? It would be a great story for company when they see it! lol

If you really are set on removing it, how about getting a long stick or telescoping stick and your tallest ladder? Or ask whoever cleans the skylight to remove it?

Maybe they could shoot another dart at it, to knock it down.

I have boys, so I understand this and it amuses me. If I couldn't reach it, it would have to stay there. Or you could use one of their Nerf guns and try to shoot it down.

You don't. I mean you can throw stuff at it and hope it falls but otherwise you don't.

It is now part of the home decor! You share the story when people ask.

It will probably fall down on its own, if not, so what.. You have a family and this is what sometimes happens when you all are having fun.
