I have a sign.

NO SOLICITING!
This includes:
religious visits,
door to door sales,
door to door nonprofits,
surveys & petitions.
Thank you!

Then it has a picture of a door to door missionary with one of those anti-symbols over it, just in case they're hard-of-reading.

What I was getting for a long time was people ignoring a simple "No Soliciting" sign, saying "Oh, we're not soliciting, we're just (keen on Jesus/ here to tell you about our lawncare service/ here to have you participate in a survey)." So I covered all my bases.

The neighborhood kids ignore the sign, but not much I can do about that.

When I lived in my old house, the Jehovah's Witnesses built a new Kingdom Hall down the street and that was pure unadulterated hell.
