How the flip do we stop people treating our place like a park? Apart from the fact that it's not nice to have people trespassing on your land we've had trees and fruit nicked in the past. Our 4 year old hedge which has been maturing nicely has just had some big gaps chopped in it by a nice local, barbed wire up wouldn't be any greater deterrent than rosa rugosa/hawthorn etc, not hard to cut a strand of barbed.

Electric strand? Doesn't have to be on, I guess. A strand of wire, with a sign on it would deter many people from 'random' trespass. I grant you it might not stop a tree thief, but that's a different matter.

wasps are ace allies and less bother in paperwork than reptiles
