Able Pest Control, a family-owned Brockton operation that BBB records trace back to 1987 under owner Joe Giammatteo, is the kind of company Southeastern Massachusetts homeowners call for wasps, mice, and the occasional flea infestation dragged in by a housecat — and one technician's name comes up again and again: Ryan. The pattern across years of reviews is specific rather than vague: in a 2024 review, a homeowner describes Ryan checking every room, the basement and crawl space, then walking the perimeter of the house and sealing two spots where mice were getting in; in another from 2024, he's credited with finding and closing a new entry hole for free on a return visit. Pricing comes up honestly too — in a 2025 review, a customer describes Ryan reassessing a suspected "worst case" hornet job on arrival and adjusting the quoted price down once he saw it was simpler than expected. Not every account is glowing. In a February 2026 review, a customer describes a technician who didn't seal a mouse hole but instead covered it with a sticky pad, arguing mice avoid sticky surfaces — the reviewer pushed back that mice can chew through it and called the fix inadequate. It's the one specific complaint in an otherwise consistent multi-year history, and worth asking about directly: how entry points get sealed versus just covered. Before calling, know the company also offers a 6-month guarantee on treatments, mentioned by more than one reviewer who used it to get a free return visit. Beyond that, what's here mostly points to one thing: ask for Ryan, and expect him to look past the immediate problem for how pests are actually getting in.
Very professional and knows his stuff
Have used Able Pest services for many many years . Always excellent service, very professional and have used for ants annually and bee issues now and then. Highly recommend ! Technician Mike has been great over all the years to take care of any issues. A+++++
The guy is super lazy he didn’t seal the holes he literally used a sticky pad over the hole. Said we can seal the hole if we want… he said mice usually won’t go if it’s sticky. They literally bite through anything. I don’t recommend this place at all. Also I read some reiviewsnsaying they’ve been with this company for 3/4 years and that they’re amazing…. If they haven’t resolved your issue in those years they’re no good. Honestly just seal the holes yourself I’m so disappointed I couldn’t just done it myself.
We’ve used Able Peat twice in the past 3-4 years. They did a great job the first time, but our kitchen remodel invited critters in again and we had to call Able for a 2nd time. Ryan, the technician, is extremely thorough, both inside and outside. They have a 6 month guarantee, which we did use the 1st time- and after that we were pest free! Able Pest returned my call quickly, and Ryan is courteous, friendly and professional. I hope I don’t need them again, because that means we have pests- but I am happy to recommend!
quick and best service, clear price, profesional. Higly recommendation!
