Angelica beside your front door has the power to drive away tax collectors, so should be able to cope with randoms such as you describe. For best effect, companion plant with dill and parsley. These are 3 of the power herbs in the north european tradition. Only problem, angelica is a huuuuge plant - a good metre across and tends to spread its tentacles a long way, so might not be the most space effective solution. Hard to find in Melbourne except from specialty herb suppliers too.
Oh dang, that might be a little big. I found the seeds on the seed collection site and do have that dry sandy patch but it might die and if the plants were in pots they might get stolen. ๐ข
