A: Tell him that the next time he sets foot on your property, you are calling the cops because he is trespassing. And do it, and press charges. Hire an attorney for about $100 or so to write the guy a strongly worded letter.

There is no justification for this clown's behavior, so if it comes to it, make it (legally) hurt.

A: Make sure you record the deed, if you haven't done so already. Once you do that, other uninvited guests are trespassers, that's what Mr. K was trying to explain.

Good luck.
