Then act like a victim when you cant oust your vermin. Or have to call Dog the Squatter Hunter to clean up your mess. If someone is in your house, uninvited, call LEO. If you let them in, enjoy your retirement savings vaporize to Better call Saul. Don't conflate sir. You hire a 'contractor' with an AK 47 loaded and his fur baby Orca...and they injure, even a scumbag....enjoy the consequences.

The problem is that, in some states, what you are calling a home invader in your second sentence, the law calls them a squatter with tenant rights. Law enforcement may tell you that they cannot help you because it is a civil matter. Then, it can take months to evict the squatter, home invader, or whatever you want to call them.
