No threat is too small as the trio devises creative solutions for warding off possible hazards from trespassing and burglary to high-intensity doomsday scenarios. At their one-stop shop for home protection, The Moss Shop team construct what they see fit to ensure the highest level of safety for their clients, from exploding trees and secret escape routes to booby-trapped driveways and distracting decoys. Prepping for over three decades, this jovial crew has witnessed it all and has had fun along the way, at this rate there is no trap they won't set. Tune in to the series premiere of PREPPER HILLBILLIES on Saturday, April 5 at 10/9c only on Destination America to watch the masterful Moss Shop crew take on all types of hillbilly defense.

The series premiere episodes are:

Backwoods Barricades Premieres Saturday, April 5 at 10/9c Georgia prepping experts Barry, Eric and Fred don't just want their client to be warned the next time intruders try to trespass - they want to stop potential interlopers in their tracks.

The Hatfields and the Decoys Premieres Saturday, April 5 at 10:30/9:30c The Moss Shop team have inventive security solutions after thieves break into a small business to steal its tasty product: smoked jerky.
