Legal Question in Family Law in Iowa

My wife and I have recentely seperated, and she left of her own doing. We have also discussed divorce optins, but have not filed anything. We have one child together and I pay her an agreed upon amount of 75.00 dollars each week. Visitation was also set up by us and agreed upon. Now she has aksed to change some things from time to time, but once I told her that I could not accomadate her new request, she has become very upset. She also wants to come over and get the rest of her possessions while I would not be at home. I told her I was not comfortable with her being at my house while I was gone. Does she have any legal right to come onto my property and do this while I am gone? She has also threatend to have local law inforcment involved if neccesary.
