Ok GLP are tire spikes legal to use on private property as a 'deterrent'?

this, i like this...

Man... stop and think.

Just put a sign "Danger - No driving"

Then you learn something from the past...

The greeks used to bury clay pots on their battlefields, so the enemies horses would break in and themselves.

Yes exactly, get some scrap lumber, clay pots, a shovel and big ass nails(roofing). Put the nail trough the lumber, dig a hole, put it in, cover it with the pot and fill the soil back in... should work out...

Tank Trap!

Or just put a steel rope and a sign "Attention Zip Line" :D

Yeah OP...dont get yourself in trouble or hurt anyone if you can avoid it. All states are different. I speak hypothetically..

Don't be skerd. There's turtles!

They sell them online just for this purpose.

Link for spikes? Doubt they'd work on soft ground, though.

Posted before seeing the post above this.

Might be a way to secure those to a platform. Thanks for the link.

Small concrete pyramids like these:

Will typically damage a tire when hit, but relatively safe for people/animals.

People use them on the edges of their lawns to keep cars from running over their grass.

Fuck... The tactical ninja road stars are badass! Found them on fleabay for $19. Only get 4 of them, though.

Long ago I had a problem with a punk burning rubber and squealing tires in front of my home--at the end of a cul de sack. He made the mistake of coming around at about the same time on a Saturday night--for a couple of months. I knew who the shit head was--he was only 17. Kicking his ass was not an option.

So, to the solution. One Saturday evening I decided I would screw him up. I looked around the garage for some material--nothing in particular. I spotted some 2 1/2 in roofing nails complete with large washers. I sprayed them black. I put three rows of five right off my curb. I thought with any luck he would pick up 2 or three--he took five.

I never saw the punk again.

I would suggest the roofing nails on your property. Just make a map of the locations and pick them up after the fact. Their tires should not go flat until long after they are gone--like the next morning.

Forget about any warning signs other than no trespassing. In much of the country it is an admission of guilt of intent to do harm. There is no shortage of degenerate lawyers to try to make a case over that.

Do the damage and make the punks go away. Then, sit back with a cigar and a glass of port and enjoy life.

Just dig a goddamn bear pit on the trail and cover it good.

Yeah those are nice. A small bit and a drill press if you could hollow them out tires would be flattened in a few seconds.

Gorilla glue a shitload of those on a pieces of camo’d plywood just put em out at night, cover with leaves and pine straw

Just imagine the thread update if they're stranded on my property and busted red-handed!

One for the ages!

Ninja stars too pricey for how many I need. Framing nails angled correctly thru plywood looks like the answer. Installed in a row or two on the end of the plywood so weight is already on the board before hitting the spikes ensuring proper penetration.

Gonna cover the nails with Styrofoam to avoid any possibility of them being stepped on by any innocent creatures. It should crush enough under vehicle weight to expose the pointy goodness where it counts.


Camo paint job's a great idea, thanks MK! Def gonna conceal it with debris.

Oh shit! hahaa!

Rebar placed at a sharp angle will nicely impale oil pans and fuel tanks.
Stick it up a foot and a half at about 45’ angle. Hide it with some sticks.
Morons speeding down a road at night will never see it.

Also, jerry cans with fuel laced with valve grinding compound is a nice irresistible gift for morons.

Diesel mixed with chlorine ruins engines.

1/4 inch black pipe cut at sharp angle will core tires nicely. Works better than before big spikes.

Lots of nice gifts for morons.

Yes, indeed...

Are you old enough to remember the Drive-In Movies? All of them had the strips across the driveways to keep people from sneaking in the Exit Outlet. BTW, the most people we ever snuck into the drivein was 15 in the trunk. That was when cars were actually land yatchs with trunks the size of a..., well big.. LOL

Never backup or POP goes the weasle.

I don’t know if I’d do this I read about a case some time ago where a guy had a house and lots of land, on that property was an abandoned house in addition. The guy got sick of people breaking into the abandoned house and vandalizing. He booby trapped the house to fire a shot gun and the next trespasser was shot in the leg. He sued the property owner and the
Courts sided with the trespasser. Pretty sure the land owner lost his home and property in the lawsuit. This might be considered boobytrapping and most likely is illegal where you live. I would call your local sheriff and find out. I just don’t want to see you get sued.

There's actually one in this general area still in operation.


But yeah, I'm old but not that old. hahaa

Put up a fence.

Quite a difference between that and someone having their tires punctured by their own unlawful action.

Your concern for my well being is appreciated, though.

That's a lot more work and lot less fun.


There is a fence but it doesn't cover the entire length of the entry area. Small opening at one end that's ideal for targeting the offender's tires.

Put up a couple of Game Cameras, catch the buggers destroying your property.. take the sd card to Walgreens and get pics developed, take the pics to the DA and press charges for destruction of Property.

Very depressing and not nearly as fun as jerry rigging your very own tire strips.. LOL

More humane than piano wire at neck height when dealing with ATVs

Yeah not a fan of that concept, considering...





On a side note... Friends don't let friends ride quads.
