The other common thread here is remaining serious.
Do you keep your property posted properly - replacing signs that are torn down, etc?
If you can find a place where they are crossing to gain access to your land, have you closed it off? Either barb wire, or cut limbs and yard debris, etc. Something that looks man-placed to place an obstruction with a posted sign nearby.
There is a landowner near me who has placed signs saying:
"Tresspassers will be SHOT!"
Don't know if he's serious or not, but I have absolutely no intention of even driving up his driveway to meet him and find out!
I'd guess he's shooting often around his land even if he is putting those signs out for dramatic effect.
I practice training drills with my firearms, and the benefit of that is the neighbors are aware. I hope and expect it will pay off next deer season with regard to dog hunters.
