To complete the Exterminator mission in Modern Warfare 3 Zombies, the first step is to find a Spore Control Contract. They are spread across the map, and you can consult your tactical map to track one down. Once located, accept the contract and follow the steps below:

• Head over to the marked location on the map as directed by the contract.
• Once you reach the area, quickly look for the Toolbox, marked with a square logo.
• Open it and loot the Inhibitors.
• Rush to the nearest cocoon surrounded by the purple gas and deploy an Inhibitor. Repeat this for all the cocoons in the area.
• When the Inhibitor destroys the outer shields of the cocoons, they will appear red.
• Once they change colors, shoot it down.

That's it. Shooting down all six cocoons will complete the Spore Contract. If you find yourself running out of time, you can undertake this mission in squads to complete it quickly.

Once all six cocoons are destroyed, a purple Reward Rift will appear. Approach and interact with it. Loot the Rare Aether Tool Plans Schematic from therein and then proceed to exfiltrate safely from the area. Doing so will complete the mission, and you will earn all the rewards the mission promises.
