I'm not positive but I think that the homeowner can be liable if a trespasser is harmed in a booby trap.

Why? The homeowner didn't encourage the trespassers to defy the sign.

This sign might keep 'em out.

They had these triangle signs in Manas, Kyrgyzstan and Bagram Airfield, Afghanistan. Only Georgian contractors went past the signs.

I say that if businesses can use concertina or barbed wire, I should be able to dig my punji pit, shitty bamboo tips and all, but fine. Ho-hum.

3. No Traps.
Booby traps, trip wires, bear traps, bamboo tiger pits, and other devices intended to ensnare, harm, or potentially kill trespassers are at best a legal liability -- and at worst, the basis for criminal charges.
Many states have outlawed these trespasser countermeasures, and even if there's no explicit criminal law banning them, they present a huge risk for injuring or killing unexpected guests on your property.

Guess I'm going to have to get a wood chipper and make some blood, bone, and meat meal.
