Talk Host is absolutely correct - there is no "law" against solicitation in TV. Someone said something about rules but rules are not enforceable by law enforcement. Those that say "call Community Watch" are also correct. Although they can't "do" anything about the solicitors, just their presence has a deterrent effect. And they will (usually) come and watch the solicitors and follow them around. If they don't, call Chief Tucker, Village Public Safety, and let him know his CW people aren't doing their jobs.
On a slightly different but related subject, sales persons who go door-to-door do have to be licensed by the state of Florida (but not politicians, religious or charitable organizations, people pushing ideas but not selling products or services). You can and should ask to see their state solicitation license. If they won't show you one, or don't have one, that is a violation of Florida law and you can call local law enforcement to report it and ask them to send an officer/deputy.
