One recent customer had yellow jackets coming into the kitchen, and Lavery responded within the hour to spray the nest on the roof. A customer with an in-ground yellow jacket nest got a visit the next day; the tech, Mike, arrived on time, explained what he was going to do, suited up and walked the property before he left. Tom set traps for one recent customer, who heard one go off within 30 minutes of him leaving. Inside a condo, Michael sealed the holes the same day and placed traps. A recent customer said Lavery got rid of rats in the basement, ants in the kitchen and wasps in the front yard over a few months. A 2025 customer who heard scratching in the attic at night said the technician, Paul, was neat and thorough, and that the mice were gone. On price, one recent customer said the quote was very reasonable compared with other quotes and that the company did not immediately try to upsell a yearly or monthly plan. A recent customer who hired Lavery for ant, mice and insect issues on a back patio was charged over $300 for the first visit, was told regrouting the patio was the only solution for the ants, and was declined a refund on canceling; the company said it had waived an additional $300+ cancellation fee. A recent customer also found the answering service and virtual assistant a little difficult to get through. Connecticut lists its pesticide applicator licence, PMBR.00002, as active, held by Ed Lavery & Sons Pest Control LLC.
