I made one that outlines specifically that no unsolicited material be left, nothing be left on the porch or on the door, etc.  I think if you make a joke of the sign people won't take it seriously.  NOBODY has knocked or left unsolicited since I made one and posted it.

Hey Sooner!  You're lucky.  One of the signs I put up also includes verbage saying not to leave anything on this property.   Some of them still do.  It's so frustrating.  

Sometimes I think that some of them just like to taunt people by not respecting their requests to be left alone and not have litter put on the door, porch, etc.

Yeah, but you know ME!  Ha ha!!!  Maybe they know the witch lives here.

When we lived in a house, we had people ringing our doorbell all the time. "No Soliciting" signs were ignored. Finally, I taped a sign just below the doorbell that read:

No Selling

No Religion

No Trespassing

Police will be notified

That did the trick!

Our taped up sign also reads the same.  It's too bad folks can't understand the basic "NO SOLICITING". 

[jackthebear]

sign may not help,  they probably don't know the definition of soliciting.

Move to a gated community - if they can't get in they can't knock on your door.

  Yes, they can and do.... I live in one and still get them.

The jerks who ignore my sign get to read my doormat:

This sign seems to cover it all.

That's a pretty good one!

One of the ones I made to supplement the simple 'No Soliciting' sign that didn't work has a lot of verbage including 

************************************

NO SOLICITING!!!

THAT MEANS YOU!

If we don’t know you,

are not expecting you,

or have not invited you -

GO AWAY!!!!!!

Do not ring the doorbell!

Do not knock on the door!

DO NOT LEAVE ANYTHING ON THIS PROPERTY!!

PLEASE NOTE:

USPS, UPS, & FedEx

Are always welcome!

************************************

Sadly, this doesn't work either, but I sure tried!

That one followed this one which, clearly, didn't work either - 

************************************

NO SOLICITING OF ANY KIND!!!

THAT DOES MEAN YOU!!!!

I DON’T CARE IF YOU THINK IT DOES NOT MEAN YOU…IT DOES!!!

This includes religion, politics, polls, charities, surveys, and anybody not invited or otherwise welcome on our property.

I'm kinda' liking this one.  With a few adjustments.
