What's the Best Way to Keep Tresspasers of Your Yard?

Shotguns were brought up, in conjunction with underwear, naturally. Cuz that's how we roll in the US of A.

Me, I prefer something that works even when I'm not around. So, I'd go with lava. Molten lava.
 
What would you do in Sweden?

Well, my sister has a dog and I'm completely convinced that its half bear. One look at that dog and most people shit themselves, even if its one of the most harmless animals I've ever met.

Well, it's not as dangerous here as it is in bloody Sweden with all those Syrian mobsters running around, aye guvnah?

Sweden is hardly dangerous. At least, not any more so than the US, for instance. Most of Sweden is pretty civilized, but to be honest I've been to some areas where I wouldn't go outside without a ballistic vest after dark.
 
Seriously? Half the members of this forum are Americans and none of you have suggested a shotgun?

From the very first page:
Definitely invest in a fence with a key lock of some kind. You'll still be able to come and go but there's no way anyone else will be able to say they didn't know it was private property.

In the meantime, wander around your yard in your underwear, with a shotgun on your shoulder. That'll keep the kids in their own damn yard. :devil:

Good reading skills, there.

That was just a little inside joke. We used to have this poster here named Ares93, and he made Sweden out to be like some kind of a warzone with angry Syrians running around everywhere. But you wouldn't know anything about that, right "Doc"?
 
Nobody... NOBODY messes with the Swedish mafia, pal.

At least, no one who wishes not to be found in a 18.288 decimeter hole next to a fjord...
 
"Pinching a loaf"? :confused: A loaf of what?
Poop.
I've heard of "dropping a deuce," but that's a new one on me. I really need to get out more.

Norway has fjords. Sweden has gorgeous blondes and depressing movies.

Sharktopi. :p

It was suggested early on in the thread.

Most Americans do not own a gun... despite what the world media would have people believe.
 
1-tall perimeter fence with barbed wire toppers
2-"No Trespassing" signs
3-"Beware of attack dogs" signs even if you have none
4-both fake and real security cameras
5-motion lights with alarm
:beer:
 
What would you do in Sweden?

Oh, I know the Swedish way! We'd "make a fist in our pockets", and then don't do very much. Most certainly, no one would get shot.

Addition: I'd go for a small fence with a gate where you like to pass through. Even if it's passable, people hopefully understand that they are not supposed to pass through.
 
The fence may not work. A relative was painting a house that was in an identical situation to this, the owner put up a fence... the day after it went up, it was torn down by the locals o_O And an interesting diversion... I'd heard of this country town where the streets were named after locals (they had no names before this) - some of the locals didn't like who'd been named for streets, so they kept tearing the signs down until they met everyone's approval!
 
How about putting up a toll-booth?

Cannibalism. Eat the trespassers and you have yourself a tasty snack in addition to thinning the herd of unwanted miscreants.

Add a flamethrower to your repertoire and you've got yourself a cooked meal in under 5 seconds.
