Billy the Exterminator


We don't have cable television or satellite in our house so we watch a lot of shows on Netflix. Lately Corbin and Cael have been watching Billy the Exterminator, a reality show about an exterminator with an awesome mullet in Louisiana. He deals with all sorts of slimy, creepy, crawly, fury pests in peoples homes like roaches, raccoons, snakes, alligators, wasps, armadillos and foxes. Cael absolutely loves this show, and even tries to invite his friends from the neighborhood into our house to watch episodes. However, he is starting to get a little obsessive. A couple of nights ago I had to check our garbage cans because Cael was certain that he heard a raccoon when he was taking out the trash. He has informed me how to determine if a snake is venomous or nonvenomous by looking at the shape of their pupils and scales. Then while we were walking into the grocery store last weekend Cael said, "Mom, did you know that a single raccoon can destroy an entire air conditioning unit." I am trying to convince him that he should be Billy for Halloween, but so far he hasn't agreed. As you can guess, Avery is not even slightly impressed with this show.
