+All log messages by this library are made using the *DEBUG* level, under the
+`filelock` name. On how to control displaying/hiding that please consult the
+[logging documentation of the standard library](https://docs.python.org/3/howto/logging.html).
+
+E.g. to hide these messages you can use
+`logging.getLogger("filelock").setLevel(logging.INFO)`.
