how to make or buy a one way door.

[cookiebun]

The guys I work with are too lazy to look up how to make a one way exclusion door. Does anyone know where to get these for a good price? How about some easy to follow plans? I need some thing for tightspaces.
I'm sick of these knotheads. :frustratedx:madd

I didn't listen to the sound... please disregard if innapropriate! :embar However, there seem to be several options if you google one-way exclusion for squirrels.

I already did that. I was hoping the experienced folks here would know what works and what doesn't.

Can you describe exactly where and how you need to use this?

They get in our attics by chewing holes in the soffit .
Our downspouts have a scupper box just below the soffit. They sit in the scupper box an chew holes around the downspout where it enters the soffit. We've been remove some of the scupper boxes but our buildings are stucco. Once they've made a hole they don't need the scupper box any more.
I've been watching my co-workers essentially play "whack a mole" with the squirrels on this one building all winter. They cover the entrance hole with hardware cloth so the squirrels inside chew another one to get out.
Thanks.

I found this picture online, I can't find anything exactly like our buildings.

So, if you get them out, what will prevent them chewing back in? I have read about using a funnel shape that they can just fit through on the way out. The shape isn't conducive to them getting back in.

Yes, I showed the guys some pictures of that today.
My thinking is to get them all out of the building BEFORE they have babies. Put the one way doors on all their holes at once instead of: Block one hole. Resident calls and says they still have squirrels. Bitch about resident and/or squirrels. Go back block another hole, etc etc. This has been going on for weeks. They trap and relocate squirrels thinking that helps. It doesn't, other squirrels take their place.

Works great.
Well made.

You must seal up all entry points except for one 3x3 hole.
Make sure that the screws you put in, do not protrude inside the house to lacerate those on their way out!

Thanks. I've ordered 2.
I hope I can get management to invest in more.
