Go ... Please? Dealing with Nuisance door to door

When you move into a new house in a new neighborhood, is likely to be upset from time to time by people to be at his door, asking for jobs, magazine sales, Girl Guide cookies, religion, chocolates for the local swim team ... anything and will try to sell to you. Unfortunately, can not set steel traps for these people, hoping to catch them and release them in nature (and honestly, sometimes you want tasty biscuits Girls' Guide to be brought to your door), but what can you do to discourage people who do not want? Read on for tips!

Turn off the Open Sesame: A blow or a ring does not mean someone is entitled to be answered in the door, especially if a stranger and alone. As unpleasant as people have been posing as vendors in order to gain access to the house and homeowner. If you are afraid that a thief casing the joint, evidenced by their presence at home or have a record of the barking of a dog to play. But you do not have to open the door or make the call in any way if you do not feel good with him. If someone claims to be having problems with the car, you can always offer to call the police - behind the camera.

Signs: Place a sign saying "No Bid" is a good start, but then you always have people who do not think that applies to them - "I'm not asking, I'm doing the work of Lord! "Therefore, it is possible to be more explicit." No Soliciting, not religious "is better. For those who are devout members of a particular faith, perhaps a sign indicating that this may be useful (proud member of the Organisation X). However, it also may attract those who have an opposing view they think it is now your mission to save your soul from the clutches of religion (or lackthereof) X. So the next tactic.

Polite refusal: most reasonable people are animals and someone who is trying to convey that they are not interested will be heard. A, "Sorry, not interested in cleaning of the cleaner / mold chocolate / Pastafarianism "may be all they need the suggestion that you are not interested and nothing is said that this will change. Start by being nice, if you're new to the neighborhood, you do not know if you know these people in his party next block, so it's worth starting with kindness.

firm rejection: Some people just do not take no for an answer. Still, speaks better for you if you do not sink to their level of rudeness. In such situations, is perfectly valid to reiterate its refusal and firmly closed and locked the door. You have tried to be good, now they deserve to have your camera in your face. In some cases, this is what it takes to get people to leave and not return.

Now we're getting to the solicitation of hard-core - People who keep coming back, despite repeated denials of money, time or immortal soul:

Speaking to the top: If these people represent a particular belief, product or service from a company can not be acting in the way that his superiors want them to act. Writing a letter can be very effective and can save a copy for one of the registers in case things get really problematic. Be polite in the letter and express the feeling that repeated harassment does not encourage buying, believe it or recommend anything that is sold.

Shock tactics: Some people have had remarkable success with the door open, with or without clothing that is designed to shock or offend the viewer. Others have large dogs, angry contributing to greet the vendors. Some try to use his height to project an air of quiet menace. Some people like to celebrate Halloween early and come to the door cover of fake blood and a butcher knife. In the case of religion, some try to argue the belief system or claim a belief system that is completely antithetical to the lawyer. All these tactics can be effective but should be used with caution, since the reactions can range from boredom to a call hysterical the police, which may turn the tables on the joker.

empty threats: the use of physical violence or malicious intent settings injure persons is not recommended or advocated for all by the author. Too often, this sort of thing could result in injury, death or at least, an unpleasant situation where the police, legal action and the possibility that the owner is at fault. Therefore, we are assuming that the threats of illegal activities or borderline illegal action empty threats, which also is not recommended because they may be brought before a court of law against the homeowner.

Action legal: It makes sense to know the laws governing their property anyway as a safeguard measure. If people are just door to door in line at the front porch and not can take any more, you might consider legal action. Consult a lawyer before doing anything and see what are their rights. Many lawyers are exempt from invade laws only if you get to your door. However, if you can make a case to court for harassment (repeated visits, the refusal to leave the property, abuse verbal), you may be able to legally block people coming to your property or, in some cases, to a certain distance from you. Use this only as a last resort not unless you have very clear evidence, courts are often inclined to make a big deal about the people call to your door.

These are just some tips how to deal with lawyers from door to door. Above all, stay safe, stay legal and stay polite. In most cases, these people will leave you only when it is clear that you are not interested.
