My wife and I live in an older apartment complext with thin walls. The couple above us has the squeakiest bed in the world. They decide to proceed with their "repopulating the earth" at very early hours, anywhere between 1-5 am. I hate getting woken up in the first place, but this is even worse. It is driving me crazy! We both have to get up early for work, and it is killing the sleep factor.
I don't know the people, and i'm not sure exaclty how to bring it up. My first reaction is to tape a can of Wd40 to their door, and maybe they will get the hint. I mean how do mention something like this?
Suggestions?

Maybe get one of those sound muffler things that a lot of therapist offices use.
I would be too embarrassed to confront them, but if it gets to a point where you seriously can't take it anymore, maybe that WD40 idea aint a bad idea!

Anyone who lives in an apartment/condo where others are close by should play a CD at night. Something soft and relaxing like Clayderman. It will drown out the other noises and allow peaceful, uninterrupted sleep.

Usually a little comment to the wifey like "You two were sure frisky last night!" makes the woman too worried about being heard that it takes care of the situation.

I still have a gut feeling Shaq will be better next season (2008/2009) after our docs have a full off season to work their magic on the Big Saguaro!
Leave a can of WD-40, then cut out a bunch of letters out of a magazine and write a pissed off letter.... but make the letter seem like you are someone other than yourself (like the guy on the other side who doesn't speak English too good)
There was a couple that lived above us in married housing at NAU. They liked to do "the deed" in the bathtub. It was always good for a laugh to hear the "squeaky cheeks" on the tub. Luckily for sleeping reasons, it never lasted more that 15 seconds. True Story...
My suggestion is to turn on the most unromantic music you can find. Maybe the Barney theme song? I wanted to try the Rubber Duckie song on my neighbors.
Rubber Duckie, you're the one.
You make bathtime lots of fun.
Rubber Duckie, I'm awefully fond of you.
Rubber Duckie, joy of joys.
When I squeeze you, you make noise.
Rubber Duckie, you're my very best friend, it's true.
Maybe you could just cheer them on. Like Rob Schnieder on Waterboy.
"You can do it!! You can do it ALL NIGHT LONG!!!"

I love squeeky beds.
