Wonder if you can help?

My Thai is quite limited, but I want to post a warning on my gate to prevent unwanted intruders....been getting thieved a bit of late!

How would you (In Thai script) write - "Intruders will be exterminated" I don't want to use words like Kamoy, as I don't mean it specifically for theives...what is the Thai for "intruder"

And I don't want to use the words "will be shot" or that would advertise I have a gun, simply "exterminated" if there is an equivalent! Cheers.

Well Brian, congratulations for being one of the few Thaivisa geezers who's got the courage to post this sort of provocative stuff under his real name. I hand it to you.

I'm sure your notice will be fully effective in warding off evils and I wish you all the best.

the closest i can determine is :

ผู้บุกรุกจะขจัด

phuu book rook(tresspasser/intruder) ja (marker for a future action that preceeds the verb) kha jat (removed/eliminated etc...)

Nice sign, but the text should read ระวัง. The spelling ระหวัง, which is what was intended, is pretty common, but not officially sanctioned.

Fair enough, I actually lifted it from here:

but left the extra characters in when stiching the graphic together :o

Note the mistranslation of (falling) rock as brick which someone has taken a pot of yellow paint to... :D
