Jesus christ. You need to sit them down and talk to them. THIS IS NOT APPROPRIATE. I had to tell my own mother it was not okay to just walk into our house. I asked her to please call before or at least ring the bell. Even if it is family they need to know the boundaries and what is socially acceptable.

Tell them that from now on, they need to ring the bell or give you a call if they want to come over as you might be naked or have important clients over or some other reason why you might not want to be bothered. If it persists get a big dog that that is trained to hate strangers.

This is the type of thing you nip in the bud the FIRST time it happens.

"How'd you get in?"

"Oh I just let myself in"

"Well this is a private residence and you need to knock and wait for someone to answer. I could have been naked or you could have gotten shot maybe both."

Exactly. I told my mother, as I was not the home owner, and just a renter, that she needed to wait until I was actually THERE, and use the bell. She has followed the rules since I talked to her. We have 2 people who are allowed to walk in that don't live here. One is the maid, the other is the best friend of the 2 other people who live here. He cares for the kitties when we are out and has his own keys.
