The proper term is adverse possession. In the United States a 'squatter' is a trespasser.

Missouri:

The period of time for adverse possession must be at least ten (10) years. Missouri Code §516.010-.030.

What is Missouri law on fence possession?

In Missouri, fence possession laws are primarily governed by the "fence law," which outlines the responsibilities of property owners regarding boundary fences. Under Missouri law, adjacent landowners are generally required to share the costs of maintaining a boundary fence unless an agreement states otherwise. If a landowner builds a fence on their property, they typically have the right to possess and maintain it, but they should ensure it does not encroach on their neighbor's land. Disputes regarding fences can often be resolved through negotiation or, if necessary, legal action.
