Mayella lured Tom Robinson onto the property by asking him to help her with some chores, specifically to chop up an old chiffarobe. She took advantage of the fact that Tom was passing by their house to get him to come inside.

Tom Robinson was doing work in the yard, and he saw that Bob Ewell, Mayella's father, was making sexual advances on her and was assaulting her. Tom burst in to break it up, and in order to cover up his sexual abuse of his daughter, Bob Ewell accused Tom Robinson of the crime.

What made tom visit the ewells house in the first place?

Okay, in Tom's testimony(the truthful one), Mayella had asked him to come in to look at the door because it was 'broken'. (Tom walked past everyday and often did odd jobs for her). However, he saw that the hinges were working perfectly. He wanted to leave when Mayella asked him to come into the house to get something from the top of a large chiffarobe. That's when she came onto him. In Mayella's testimony, she claimed that he had never gone into the house before and that she asked him to come inside to bust up a chiffarobe. That's when Tom so-called raped her.


If you have a trespassing sign can the mail person or fed ex person still come onto the property?

Possibly, because by having a gate and a driveway you give implicit consent to people who have to coming onto your property. If you notified the post office that you don't want them to come onto the property, or leave a specific notice at the gate or a postbox, then they could technically be trespassing, but they aren't normally.
