Reptile Repellent
I was watching a TV show called "Billy the Extermiator" he sprayed what he call reptile repellent. Said it made from a Garlic base.................... (wait for it), "because reptile don't like garlic and if sprayed once a month around your yard it'll keep snakes away."  The people had a rattle snake problem so after catching a 6 foot rattler he spays this stuff all over their yard and tell them this will keep snakes away and he'll be back in a month to spray again. Has anyone ever heard of this?
Plus did you know snakes have really good hearing  and kids playing and make a lot of noise can attract snakes. He might catch a lot of snake on the show, but i think he needs to do a little reading and get his facts straight.

Re: Reptile Repellent
I can't stand the look of the idiot myself & can barely tolerate him for more than a minute or 2.
When it comes to facts he's pretty much totally useless unless of course you are looking for the wrong answers that is.
I can't wait until the show is cancelled as all the guy does is spread inaccurate BS, & is a useless POS IMHO Mark

I have here a special rock I will ship you if you want. Guaranteed that if you club those unwanted family members over the head with it, they will stop showing up
Billy may be an annoying punk rocker wannabe, but I admire his respect for life... Most exterminators I have ever heard of slaughter snakes rather than relocate them, So I do tip my hat to that facet of the show. (My kids like the guy, so I get stuck watching it often enough.)

Re: Reptile Repellent
i have to admit if i watch a snake show with so called experts i end up shouting at the tv.so for my blood pressure and familys sakes i tend not to watch them anymore.
i still watch a bit of austin stevens now and again though.
if for nothing else other than seeing him do things like wrestle a 14 ft scrubby up in the tree canopy trying to take its picture.
the guys got guts if nothing else imo
cheers shaun

Guy likely has some good to him, but its overshadowed by all the BS & hype the TV folks get off on.
He's just one of those guys I can love to hate anyhow LOL Mark

Re: Reptile Repellent
You guys have to remember, tv shows I think add some bs for the entertainment value. Not saying the show is pointless and idiotic...
Only snake show I watch is snake wranglers... and use to watch python hunters but it don't seem to be on any more...
As for the show in question. The one episode I seen was horrible... enough said.

One episode they killed some Nutria (Myocastor coypus), then made sure to send the carcasses to the zoo for gator food.
