Career Beginnings

Vexcon Animal & Pest Control was launched in 1996 by Billy’s father, Bill Sr. and Billy soon became one of the employees of the firm, with his brother Ricky also becoming a part of the improving company for animal and pest control.

The show lasted for 75 episodes and six seasons, after which it was canceled, mostly due to Billy’s falling out with family. After the disagreement, Billy moved to Illinois, officially ending the show and his stint in Vexcon Animal & Pest Control.
