Exterminator

The Exterminator is a Service NPC in The Sims 2. If a lot is filthy, or has been visited by evil witches, and you see cockroaches crawling around, call the exterminator and they will rid the lot of them for you. In The Sims, the Maid, Servo, and Bonehilda will do this as part of their duties, as there is no exterminator NPC in The Sims.

In both The Sims and The Sims 2, Sims can be directed to perform the action "Spray", which causes a Sim to use bug spray to kill the roaches. In The Sims, Sims who try to stomp the roaches aren't likely to have much luck at getting rid of them. In The Sims 2, Sims who try to step on the bugs are likely to get sick.

The Exterminator wears a yellow suit with orange details and a hat. They also carry a tub of bug spray on their back which connects to a hose in their hand. If you have a butler, he will call the exterminator but can't actually spray the roaches himself.

If you dont want your Sims to get sick from roaches heres what to do. Keep your sims inside and lock all the doors from keeping your sims to squash the bugs. After that, call the exterminator. After he/she does his job you may unlock the doors.
