Pure vanity for the very best of reasons (less about that later).

What repels gypsies?

What is their cross, their holy water, their sunlight?

I have a friend who needs to ward one off.

[piytar]

Tell you friend to fold his/her arms during any encounter. Stare strongly at the person. Google “evil eye” and “gypsie protection amulet.” Follow those instructions. Note: the evil eye is junk, but they believe in it, so it might work on a psychological basis.

Work.

From the few I’ve seen, soap might prove useful to repel them...

[sparklite2]

Keep all your valuables under lock and soap.

Will watch when I’m not chained to the desk.

I spent two years in Turkey. Bulgarian gypsies were not an uncommon sight.

What repels gypsies?

Work...

Wh had a pack of them stay at the Holiday Inn, we were so glad to see them leave. Also put them on the house's do not rent list.

You ask them to borrow something and don’t give it back. Repeat enough times and eventually they go away.

[Anitius Severinus Boethius]

Gypsies are a group that originate from North India and stay very mobile, never settling in one place. They are known as Romani (or Roma) in Europe, where they have lived for many centuries.

Some think they originally came fro Egypt thus the name.

[HandyDandy]

I hear tell that gypsies steal baby’s (and horses). They have special secret skills with horses.

What scares them off? Did you learn anything that might help?

[Jim W N]

What started them and continues to move them on this endless trek?

[null and void]

Baby’s what?

So I can check off horses and anything a baby owns as gypsy repellent.

[blueunicorn6]

We have some gypsy blood in the family.

I think the biggest fear gypsies have is the fear of cream cheese.

Is it cream?

Is it cheese?

Scares the crap out of them.

I gave Uncle Boris a bagel with cream cheese and we haven’t seen him in ten years.

Now, I always keep cream cheese around.

[dfwgator]

If you think gypsies are bad here, go to europe. I would say 90% of the crime there is due to gypsies.

It's terrible.

Are they Irish Travelllers (not Roma)?

If so, do NOT hire them for anything. Watch all valuables. Watch your vehicles (after you turn them down).

A Kohls store I was shopping at became over run one afternoon w/Irish Travellers. They pretty much stormed the place. Yelling, rushing thru racks. Even the children are well trained to particiapate. They like chains because the floor plans are always similar. When cops arrived they were pretty much gone.

Be aware and very careful.
