What is the name of your state? Delaware
My property is surrounded by bamboo, an electric fence and no trespassing signs on all sides of my property. The only entrance to my property is through my front gate which remains locked and is also hooked up to the electric fence.
If someone still goes through the trouble of coming onto my property is it still only considered trespassing or would it be considered breaking and entering since they came through a locked and electrocuted gate?
If someone does come onto my property through the gate, what options do I have?
Is it still considered trespassing or is it breaking and entering?
Also if I have a dog and it attacks a trespasser/intruder, am I liable?
In my mind it just seems that If I'm surrounded by bamboo, electric fence, no trespassing signs and a gate, then it's pretty damn obvious I don't want people on my property.
