Watch what happens when a raccoon meets a one-way door
This is one of our installs in backyard. She'd been getting in and out of the same spot for weeks. We found the entry point, installed a one-way door over it, and let her do the rest.

She pushes out to go forage. The door swings shut behind her. She comes back — and it won't open.

No trapping. No stress. No harm to the animal.

Once we confirm she's out and no young are left inside, we seal the opening permanently so nothing else moves in.

That's exclusion done properly — and it's why the raccoon doesn't come back the following spring.

Dealing with raccoons in your attic, soffit, deck or shed? We handle it.

Humane skunk removal starts with the right method.
When a skunk finds its way into a client’s attic or property, our technicians use a live one-way door to allow the animal to exit safely on its own. Once the skunk is out, the entry point can be properly secured to help prevent it from coming back.

In this video, our Icon Pest technician shows the skunk safely back in a natural outdoor area after the removal process. The goal is always to handle wildlife carefully, reduce stress to the animal, and protect the client’s home at the same time.

Icon Pest provides humane wildlife removal and exclusion services across Toronto and the GTA, including skunk removal, raccoon removal, squirrel removal, entry point sealing, and prevention-focused service.

If you notice wildlife activity around your attic, deck, shed, or roofline, don’t block the opening yourself.

This is not a small wasp problem.

Our Icon Pest technician found a highly active yellow jacket hive inside a gate pillar, with heavy activity around the security gate conduit. When yellow jackets build inside a tight enclosed space like this, the visible traffic is usually only part of the problem — the main hive can be hidden deep inside the structure.

For this job, treatment needs to reach the active entry point first. Once the colony is knocked down, the hive can be accessed and removed if needed.

Yellow jackets can become aggressive when their nest is disturbed, especially near gates, walkways, patios, entrances, and outdoor work areas. If you see constant wasp activity going in and out of one opening, do not spray randomly or block the hole.

Icon Pest provides wasp nest removal, hornet nest removal, yellow jacket treatment, and pest control services across Toronto and the GTA.

For this treatment, Icon Pest warranties the entire 2026 bee season, all the way until November. If yellow jackets return to the treated area, we come back and take care of it.

Small details make a big difference in wildlife removal.

In this video, our technician shows a tricky entry point under a plumbing stack. Instead of placing the cut in the usual spot, he adjusted the opening along the side edge to create enough space for a proper one-way door.

That matters because a one-way door needs to sit correctly over the active opening so wildlife can exit safely and not get back inside.

This is why professional inspection and proper exclusion work are so important. Every roofline, vent, stack, and entry point is different — and the solution has to fit the situation.

Icon Pest provides wildlife removal, entry point sealing, and exclusion services across Toronto and the GTA.

Hear noises in the attic or roofline? Don’t guess where the entry point is.

Squirrel Babies in the Attic: Why Inspection Comes First

This is why you should never seal an entry point before a proper wildlife inspection.

These newborn squirrel babies were trapped inside after the access point was closed while the mother was outside. Luckily, they may still be saved if mom returns in time.

If you hear noises in the attic, walls, roofline, or vents, call a professional before blocking the opening.

A small hole near the chimney can become a big wildlife problem.

During this roof inspection, Icon Pest found a clear squirrel entry point right beside the chimney. From the outside, the area looked mostly sealed — but once the technician checked closely, the squirrel hole was easy to spot.

This is exactly how squirrels get into attics. They use gaps around chimneys, soffits, fascia, vents, rooflines, and weak exterior areas to move inside the home.

The solution is not just covering the hole. First, the animal needs a safe way out. That’s why Icon Pest installs a professional one-way door system when needed, allowing the squirrel to leave while preventing it from getting back in.

Seeing raccoons on your roof is never something to ignore.

This homeowner had just bought the property and noticed raccoon activity around the roofline. When Icon Pest arrived, our technician found two raccoons, checked the existing wildlife-proofing work, and inspected the roof for signs of damage, weak points, exposed plumbing stacks, chewing, droppings, and possible entry risks.

The important lesson: old mesh or previous wildlife work does not always mean your home is protected.

Raccoons are strong, persistent, and can damage shingles, siding, vents, plumbing stacks, and roofline areas while trying to get inside. If the exclusion work is not installed properly, it may also create other problems, including weak protection and possible water leakage around roof screws.

Icon Pest helps homeowners with raccoon removal, roofline inspections, wildlife exclusion, entry point sealing, squirrel prevention, and long-term protection across Toronto and the GTA.

If you see raccoons on your roof, hear noises in the attic, or want to check if your home is properly protected, call Icon Pest today and book your wildlife inspection.

Squirrel Entry Point Found in Attic | One-Way Door Wildlife Removal by Icon Pest

Seeing light inside your attic where it should not be? That could be a warning sign.

During this attic inspection, our Icon Pest technician found daylight coming through near the chimney area — a possible squirrel entry point from the roofline.

Squirrels can enter through small gaps around chimneys, soffits, vents, fascia, and roof openings. Once inside, they can cause scratching noises, damage insulation, chew materials, and create a recurring wildlife problem if the entry point is not handled properly.

Our process starts with a proper attic and exterior inspection. Once the active entry point is confirmed, Icon Pest can install a one-way door system that allows the squirrel to leave safely while preventing it from getting back inside.
