Chritmas decorations

Sorry if this has been asked and answered previously, but when should you take the decorations down. I've had a google about but have got conflicting advice, is it anytime before Twelfth Night but bad luck after?

I abhor seeing bright blue, manically flashing, electricity wasting light on gutters and anywhere else they can hang them outside the house.
Oh dear, that turned into a rant.

Thanks all, Mosaic, they're irritating me already, had them up since 3rd Dec as my daughter insists they are there for her birthday.
Thanks Jenna, I love raccoons.
See what I mean about conflicting advice, ron says down by Twelfth Night, maggie says on Twelfth Night. I'm even finding different dates for this, some say 5th and some say 6th Jan, although if you count from 25 Dec then 5th would be right. I want them gone now! Thanks all for the replies.
