Call the TAPS paranormal investigation team. Assuming your friend lives in the US.

I think the best method has not been proposed yet. It would be to document as thoroughly as possible everything that has happened and will happen in future. Probably there would be two results: the possible phenomena will grow weaker and perhaps we could get new evidence for psi.
Unless it's an apparition that's scaring people, or creating a bad atmosphere or behaving maliciously, I'd ask it politely but firmly to go away. It works in some cases.
I completely agree with this. Psi phenomena can be fascinating, but it is not something to goof around with out of idle curiosity.attempting to collect your own evidence might result in evoking something or providing a portal for something. Know that's pretty vague but not something to play with usually is all.

... he isn't 100% sure there's anything real to it but wants to take some precautions just in case.

Just to play devils advocate a bit, but in some cases attempting to collect your own evidence might result in evoking something or providing a portal for something. Know that's pretty vague but not something to play with usually is all.
Making thorough notes of phenomena is not evoking anything. Neither is taking photos or trying to record evoking anything. On the contrary, having psi-phenomena under surveillance often prevents them happening. Even skeptics know that.
Ghost experiences are most often misinterpretations of normal phenomena, self-suggestion or even self-delusion. Otherwise we ought to have a lot of conclusive evidence of ghosts, which unfortunately is not the case, keeping in mind all the innumerable ghost stories and ghost hunters.
Too many people are very scared after experiencing something they have misinterpreted. Beliefs do not help anybody. Getting the phenomena under control gives lasting help and documenting them gives just better control. At the same time one is learning something new about the world.
I get what you're saying. It's not wrong. On the other hand, certain folks have had blowback from attempting to document their cases. Many people get emotionally invested in them once they start getting some feedback from something anomalous.
Yes many, probably most, ghost cases are explainable; but that's really the motive of most paranormal groups. Most are not interested in confirming their own biases; many are interested in making sure people get closure, whether they are haunted or not. So in that case they are much better suited at clearing up the issue sooner than later if its an actual bother.
