Wildlife Problems? We can solve it!

Wildlife Problem? We can solve it! Don't take our word for it. Read what one of our customers has to say about us:


My experience with Apex Wildlife Control has been exceptional. I had a particularly nasty problem with roof rats and Apex stayed with the job until it was completely resolved. Apex does good quality work, goes above and beyond to solve the problem and Is always true to their word. A few weeks ago I found that I had moles in a new lawn. There was no question who I was going to call, Apex!

Customer service is what we have built our business on. We strive to make each one of our customers happy.

Repairing Holes and Entry Points of Rats, Squirrels, Mice, Opossums, and Raccoons

Tuesday, Apex Wildlife Control repaired holes and entry points for rats, mice, squirrels, opossums, and raccoons at Eureka True Vine Baptist Church.  Apex had previously been out and set over 40 traps to catch the different species of critters. The repairs needed to Eureka True Vine were extensive and Apex stepped up to help!

 The rodents and other animals had made multiple entry points into the house of worship. Rodents had chewed through brick and mortar to get into the church.

Apex located the hole made by the critter and then sealed them with mortar and foam.

Apex uses a quick drying hard foam for the hard to seal places. Two of the wildlife specialists are sealing cracks between the roof and a load baring wall. The church is repainting the ceiling and then dropping it down six inches.















Apex employees were not the only people there.  Several of the church members showed up to help paint and clean up.

Everyone pitched in to help repair the church so that it can be used to reach out into the community.  Apex did more than just find and seal holes were animals were getting in at.  The employees of Apex did other repairs.  A group of men replaced missing part of the roof.

The news of what was going on got the attention of several of the local news stations.  Each station did a story on the work being done.  The reporting of what Apex was doing encouraged other companies to help out!

Now that Apex is done with the work, Eureka True Vine is moving forward with their ministry. They will no longer have to worry about four legged furry friends living in the church.

Raccoons, Rats and Squirrels! Living in a House of Worship







Eureka True Vine Baptist Church: Raccoon, Rat, and Squirrel Removal
Eureka True Vine Baptist Church

Raccoons, Rats and Squirrels! OH MY! You will find these animals at Eureka True Vine Baptist Church.  Eureka in the last year has dealt with vandals, thieves, and now animals.   We at Apex Wildlife Control believe in helping out our community.  When we received the call about raccoons and rats at Eureka we were more than willing to help! 

Wildlife Removal Company
We came prepared!

On Tuesday a group of our men along with the owner went down to set up traps to remove those nasty little critters from the church.

The crew of guys set up squirrel traps, rat traps, 
and raccoon traps about 40 in all.  We set traps by the dumpster, by the trees, in the kitchen and in the ceiling.  The setting of the traps is just the first stage of what we plan to do at Eureka True Vine Baptist.
