How We Can Help
County of Wetaskiwin Agricultural Services works with residents to resolve pest control issues by providing:
  • Information, inspections, and advice
  • The rental of traps for the control of skunks, squirrels, raccoons, magpies and pigeons
  • Information for producers having problems with coyote predation on livestock
  • Information for producers having problems with Richard's ground squirrels (gopher)
Individuals must ensure the capture and disposal of pests in a safe and humane manner.
