Police officers, university and council officials have been patrolling in parts of Liverpool with large student populations after a chaotic start to the new term.
Local residents in areas like Picton and Greenbank in the south of the city have been reporting wide-scale anti-social behaviour as new students arrive to live in their local areas.
One woman on twitter, Anna D, reported being woken up for six nights in a row by loud, drunken students 'banging on doors' and 'blasting music' in the early hours of the morning.

She also shared a video of people playing games in the street at 2am, adding that this came after 'multiple parties and early awakenings.'
Local people in areas like Picton and Greenbank have long been calling for more action to tackle anti-social behaviour coming from student properties, with the end of the summer term a particularly difficult period.
But the problems seem to be continuing.
The Lawrence Residents Action Group, which has been campaigning on these issues, tweeted: "We are now entering our fourth year of this.
"The impact on our mental and physical health is absolutely dire. We should not have to police or parent young adults."
But at the weekend there was some action at least.
The Merseyside Police South Liverpool twitter account shared images of officers, university and council officials out patrolling in these problem areas.
The force said: "The universities of Liverpool, Liverpool Student Homes, Environmental Health, the Admiral Street Community Team and local councillors have patrolled around the Greenbank, Picton and Kensington Fields areas to tackle noise and anti-social behaviour.
"Please be considerate of your neighbours."
Frustrated locals were pleased to see some action being taken, but pointed out that most of their issues come in the week.
Anna said: "Whilst this is truly great to see and I am glad we are finally being listened to, nearly all of the antisocial behaviour happens during the week as the students don't go out at the weekends.
"It's after a night of cheap drinking at a student night in town, after that is the chaos."
The Lawrence Residents Group agreed, adding: "Many of the noise/ASB incidents, occur during midweek, often when the bars have promotion nights.
"This has the most impact as residents need to get up early for work/school but have not slept."
