How do you counter facehuggers around corners?

How do you counter aliens/facehuggers that flat out camp the corners? There are only 2 grenades per squad so you're usually out before then, and tearing down the wall takes a long time and leaves you vulnerable to attack.

There is also the fifth, best way, but you need a bit of IC knowledge about aliens for it to not be metagaming - send someone already infected (...you'll have lots of these) with a knife.
