I doesn't I just tried! Bit disappointed really.

Was it in a Red Dwarf episode where there was a big red
flashing button marked "DO NOT PRESS THIS BUTTON!!!"?

The temptation to push it to find out what it did proved
too much for Lister. Forgot what happened but I think it
was very very bad.

At a house we lived at a few moves ago, a neighbour on one
side was quite horrible. They also had horrid kids. After a
few garden thefts and an attempted burglary I painted OUR
side of our six feet high fence with anti-vandal paint. I
took care to ensure that only anyone climbing on our side
of the fence would encounter the paint. It wasn't long
before the mother of the horrid kids was complaining to us
about her kids getting something black and greasy all over
their clothes :-)

Garden associated thefts and damage stopped after that.

Don't remember the full story, but quite some time ago a farmer was fed up
with people ambling across his fields, so after he had sprayed them with
some harmless fertilizer or something, he put a sign up on the gate
announcing "This Field Has Been Sprayed With (and then he put a long
chemical name which was the true name of this fertilizer) ENTER AT YOUR OWN
RISK"

Wasn't bothered any more ;-)

On his own private land, good luck to him. But, if he did that trying to
prevent use of a right of way, he'd be breaking the law.

Breaking the law maybe but on one of our walking routes through the Surrey
Hills one field has "Beware of the Bull" signs but in all the years we have
walked there we haven't even seen an animal of any description. Mind you we
still stop and have a good look.

Report it to your local ROW officer (county council in most cases).
