"Exterminate" is a term that means to completely destroy or eliminate something. It is often used in contexts such as pest control, where it refers to the eradication of unwanted insects or rodents. The goal of extermination is to remove a problem entirely to prevent further issues. In popular culture, "Exterminate" is famously associated with the Daleks, a fictional alien race from the British television series Doctor Who. The Daleks are known for their catchphrase "Exterminate!" as they seek to eliminate all beings they consider inferior. This phrase has become iconic in science fiction.
