The federal wildfire occurrence database lists 8 fires within 5 miles of Apex between 2003 and 2018, burning about 28 acres in total. None started naturally. None was recorded as arson. Distance is straight-line from the map coordinates, so a fire counted here may appear on a neighbouring settlement's page as well.

The most recent of them, most recent first, with the day each was reported and the service that recorded it.

Settlements close enough to share some of these fires:

• Germano
• Swanson
• Carman
• Cadiz Junction
• Hares Court
• Hopedale

Every fire recorded in Harrison County

Museums hold 6 specimens collected within 10 miles of Apex between 1934 and 1934: 6 Animalia. 2 distinct Species records are shown. Collected by H. Waters, Waters, H.. Each is a physical object with a catalogue number, and each entry opens the museum's record. This is what was collected and kept, not a survey of what lives here - nothing can be concluded from a species being absent.
