Welcome to Louisiana, home to wet and wild creatures of the bayou and Season 3 of Billy the Exterminator.  He'll tackle any thing nature puts up to him, including alligators, snakes, nest of wasps, and much more... along with his wacky family, he strives to keep the people (and the animals) safe and animals out of human homes.  There is no pest that is too large or too small for him to handle.
 
Billy the Exterminator has been running the Vexcon extermination business for 16 years, an ex-air force sergeant, he teams off with his young brother Ricky and his dad Bill in various jobs of dealing with wild life.  His mom Donnie gets his various jobs and sends them off.  Most of the time some animal or creature has made way into human homes and now needs to be get rid of, but what is entertaining about this series isn't as much as the animals but more how Billy gets rid of these pests.
 
I would have to say for someone who is ex military, Billy the Exterminator's appearance has done a complete 180, he looks more like a biker than any exterminator, but then that is part of his show's charm.  He reminds me much of the show Dog the Bounty Hunter (reviewed elsewhere on this site), but instead of catching bounties he catches animals, insects and other creatures.  Most of the time he is able to get the larger creatures out without killing them and relocate them (unless it is rats or insects).  Most of the animal wild life is cool and neat to watch, there are times where it gets icky when he is handling a house full of rats or cockroaches.  Extras include behind the scenes and featurettes on Billy and his crew.
