One-Way Door Installation
A one-way door is the gentle way to empty a space. Animals can leave but cannot return. We install them at active entry holes, check that the animals have left and then seal the opening for good.

Common questions
Will babies be left behind?
We check for young before using a one-way door. If babies are inside, we handle the family together so mother and young stay together.
How long does it take?
Often a few days, depending on the animal and the weather. We check progress and seal once the space is clear.
