Never met one a Jehovah's Wittiness before, however when one of Jehovah's Witnesses comes I usually say Hi Brother or Sister as I am one.

At times, a question such as this will elicit dozens and dozens of elaborate schemes to spare a householder an unwanted conversation with Jehovah's Witness door-to-door ministers.
All such schemes are a complete and utter waste of time!
Many of your neighbors have figured it out, and it's really quite simple:
1. Open the door
2. Smile (optional)
3. Ask "Jehovah's Witness?"
4. Receive affirmation
5. Say, "Thank you, but I'm not interested"
6. Gently close the door (slamming is rude, but your prerogative)
Please recognize that Jehovah's Witnesses are not primarily interested in converts, but in working to obey Jesus' command to preach (Matt 24:14; Matt 28:19,20).

I agree with the previous answer except that I don't ask them if they are jehovah's witnesses. Instead, I treat them like I would treat any traveling salesman. After their opening sentence I say "thank you, I'm not interested."
Whether people want to talk to me about religion or roofing, politics or painting, I don't have any desire to interrupt my day to listen to them.

I let them give me their presentation, and then invite them in and show them my bible library.
We all have a good laugh, and they go on.
I found a wonderful room mate that way.
