When someone knocks at my door,
I simply ask them for their phone numbers and home addresses, so I can visit them when I have time. I know where the Kingdom Halls in my area is, so when they try to give me that as their address, I will ask them about that.
For neighbors who do not want to deal with them, I have instructed them to point out a little known law-ordnance in almost every township around where I live. Bad people have gone door to door claiming to be JW's or LDS and robbing people. The law requires everyone doing door to door to get a License with the township or city. A Criminals record check is done on those applying. Then an picture ID badge, pass is issued for them to wear in plain sight. Police will be called on anyone not wearing a pass, badge -- they are arrested under criminal trespassing laws.
All of our roads are private.
When someone calls the Police, the homeowner is asked about the Id pass. If everything lines up, then the Police informs one that they are safe persons.
For Religious and Political groups there is no charge. Companies get a token price.
This law has been challenged in the Courts and upheld because it protects the community from criminals and there is no charge to religious groups. To see how much sense this makes, do you really want someone who committed a felony on your doorstep or in your home?
They can also use one of these stickers,
No Visits by Jehovah's Witnesses or Mormons Please

If someone calls the Police with this sticker on the door, even if they have the pass, they will be arrested for trespassing without question because the Homeowner has told them up front to leave them alone.
One time I was busy digging a craw space out. During that time Baptists, LDS and JW's each visited my home. Each time I said, God has sent you to me to help. Each time, I handed them a shovel. All but one Baptist dropped the shovel and ran away.
Another time, I was helping a friend trim an old tree over a hundred feet tall. Two LDS came by, I told them God sent you, now come over here. I had them put their feet into a rope, tied another rope around their waste, told them to hold on tight, waved to my friend to start the truck and lift them up into the air. The look on their faces was priceless. Once they were up in the air, I tied a chainsaw to the ropes around their waist that was hanging down to the ground. They stared at each other in fear, so we let them down. They got on their bikes and left the area.
Bottom line, if someone, anyone comes to your house without your permission, just try to put them to work and watch them run.
