Try watching more than one episode!!!! by: Anonymous
Vexcon uses environmentally friendly, human and pet safe, NATURAL insecticides. Which he mentions repeatedly on EVERY EPISODE. The only thing he relay kills out rite is wasps and cockroaches. He relocates all mammals and reptiles he captures back into the wild when he can or to a safe sanctuary when he can not. If he can he prefers to relocate bees and there hive, but if he can not do this safely, for himself and his client, he will kill them.
The silica jell is used to seal the sight so that bees that are out foraging cannot return to the hive, and will go join other colonies. ALL OF THIS INFORMATION HE REPEATS OVER AND OVER ON EVERY EPISODE. IF YOU WOULD WATCH MORE THAN ONE OR EVEN ALL OF ONE YOU MIGHT KNOW THIS.
[I watched one, that was enough! I don't think you were paying attention!
Watch the episode I have posted on here. The silica gel is a desiccant which he uses to KILL THE BEES!

I wish people would actually watch a show and listen to what is explained BEFORE they post something ridiculous. Billy and the crew are some of the most humane exterminators you'll ever come across.
[Except when it comes to dealing with bees!]

Did you watch the same show? by: Carrie
I am a huge fan of Billy the Exterminator, who is known for relocating animals whenever possible and using organic chemicals on wasps, roaches and other pests that won't harm the environment.
I saw the episode in question three times, and Billy went to great lengths to remove the bees with a special vacuum so they could be relocated to a honey farm in Louisiana.
He carefully removed the massive hive in several pieces and put them in special beekeepers' boxes.
As for your ridiculous comment about the "death mask" he was wearing...oh, please. Billy dresses like a rock star, and the Vexcon logo is a a skull. The mask was protecting his face...so what that it had a skull on it?
People are so judgmental of others who are a little unconventional. Billy is a great guy and does NOT harm living things just for the sheet fun of it.
[Maybe there's another Billy because the one featured on the video on this page killed a whole colony of bees with desiccant and shovelled the comb into black plastic bags.
He's an idiot who obviously doesn't seem know what he's talking about when it comes to bees.

Your Wrong by: Anonymous
For one thing Billy didn't kill the bees he took them to a bee keeper along with the honey comb and them use the honey. And took the whole nest so they wouldn't be killed you are wrong in this he kept the bees alive.
[Do you mean 'You're Wrong'?
I don't know what show you were watching but it wasn't the same one we saw. He blew silica gel inside the cavity to kill the bees, then shovelled the combs into bags.
I remove colonies like this alive all the time. It's not difficult, but it's not for the faint-hearted. Go here and take a look.]

Oh stop by: Anonymous
He is an exterminator. That is what he does for a living. He isn't out killing a bunch of animals and rolling around in their blood or sacrificing kids. He is exterminating pests that could pose harm to children and families. If all those bees would swarm someone in their sleep or even maybe while they are awake do you know what that could do? Or how about if they caught someone that is allergic? They built a nest in a human dwelling.
As for the "Death Mask". Lighten up. I know a lot of people who run around wearing those for paint ball and stuff. I know guys that wear them when they shovel snow in the winter. He was finding a different method to protect himself from harm.
Him being happy or whatever about what he does. Who isn't happy about the work they do. How can you sit there and criticize someone for feeling good about what they do? Point is, quit complaining.
You don't know what goes on off the air and for that matter stop trying to knock his choice of "style" because there are a lot of people out there that like that kind of stuff. He is an exterminator, that is what they do. He just does it on TV. Let it go.
