This question should probably be asked to your local law enforcement, not the local loons on an internet forum. For some reason I don't think you own one acre much less 150.

And I do not think you are a living being, but simply a program designed to respond with unfounded accusations.

If your land is unguarded people will trespass. To be smart and safe call the DNR and report any trespassers. You can lessen the numbers but you can never stop trespassing completely.
Don't get any ideas from the goofy Eastwood wannabes in here with their "shoot and kill" garbage... it certainly isn't worth dying for...or jail time...and INTELLIGENT people know that.
Seeing as 30 is hex for 0 and 31 is hex for 1, I strip out all the 00 between them and come up with a binary string, which in plain text translates to: 098111119.
Doesn't really mean anything so I assume I am wrong on your cipher. You got me. Wish I had more time to work on it but I am at work, so I give up.
If you confront people I would let them know that they can hunt on your land IF they pay a $1000 fee. If they refuse and shoot an animal and attempt to remove it you can have them jailed and fined for grand theft.
Or....... you can declare your land its own country and petition the UN for statehood. Then you can do what you want to tresspassers.
Are your signs posted with local law code for trespassing? If so, at least here in Calif, if you post a sign with law code on it you can just call Sheriff and they will remove all people off your land for you.
The other ideas like shoot and kill or say there are land mines...hope are jokes...person did that here and was arrested after a kid got hurt...was small kid who could not read well yet. But I recall all the articles and it is just illegal to booby-trap your property ...or say you have...threaten violence etc.
What law enforcement is for..let them take the heat so you do not get in a situation where you might get hurt.
I totally sympathize with the frustration of people camping or living on your land...i feel very protective of my land and space...and just having people near it can bug me. I was raised to find the owner and ask permission ...usually since it was small town i knew all the owners if I wanted to ride on their land or hike with dogs.
Even now, I go bird hunting and randomly stopped at farms and asked permission to hunt their land. Just because we are courteous and asked ahead...most have allowed it and if we got birds...we usually gave them a few if they wanted them.
I live in very small town now ....with lots of National Forest than private land than National Forest...as a resident I know where the boundaries are and where i have permission or not to cross on private land.
But all summer and hunting season(now) we get folks from out of town who just tromp anywhere with out asking....i even told one guy he was on private land and needed permission(owner had requested i inform people if i saw them on their land) ..guy slashed two of my tires! We saw him near my car...chicken poo guy ran...into woods but they still went to nearby camp ground and found him. No i did not press charges...odds are he did not have money ..i just wanted to make sure he lived far away and he did...sheriff spoke to him and said if his name was noted so if any more problems than he be arrested. I realize with how backed up courts are...odds are it be just tossed out ..kind of sad though, huh?!
But i know it is great fantasy to toss ideas like poison out...beware or watch where you step traps out etc....but if someone trespasses it does not give us the right to hurt them. As much as we may like too....but i enjoyed reading the different ideas!
I just hate for person to take your ideas seriously than end up in prison or jail because someone got hurt on his property.
What he can do..since laws are different in states is call his local law enforcement for his area and ask them legally what he can do...they should be able to tell him if his signs need the code on them ...that enables the sheriff once he knows who should be on property or not...to just go on it if he sees someone who should not be there...at least here in Calif. I do not understand why code must be on it for sheriff even if we, the owner, calls and request assistance from sheriff..but that is part of the deal..signs have space to write down local code or state one...depends on where you live city/county etc.
Good luck...but this is another problem we are going to see more and more of with all the people losing their homes...so hopefully we can first find out why they are living on your property and if recently homeless...maybe try to help them find some place safe to live...have some sympathy for all their losses and shame they must be feeling. One day we might be wearing those same shoes!

Reason: bad grammar
The camp is a hunting camp and all the trespassers are other deer hunters. My dad went without other things to buy this camp to have a place for family and friends to hunt and enjoy, these people spend there money buying others things and then trespass on our land. IF they want to hunt they need to buy there own land. when confronting armed people you cant do much but tell them to leave, you cant make them stay for the warden to show up and you cant make them give you id.
Have you tried landmines?
