if you stick a spoon in the microwave it should turn into a 500db horn after 3 mins on full power. use 2 spoons to make a 2 tone horn.

That is ear damage levels for constant noise, should let them know you are there, or if you have a 4x4 you can just drive over them while they are supine and unconsciuos on the floor. For the lenght of time it will be in use it wont damage you.

Just buy a set of twin air horns, but make sure the horns are not in harmony with each other. Anything that is discordant sounds loud!

P.S. I have a set fitted to my Uno

truck horns will usually be 24v so if it works using electricity in any way the voltage will need to be stepped up
