Consistently late to perform services and instead of being apologetic about wasting their customers time, they blame traffic for being 30 minutes late to an hour window appointment. How is traffic my fault? It's called planning ahead. God forbid you have the audacity to complain about your time being wasted that they call you back to say "now I don't like being spoken to that way" are you kidding me?! THEN sending their worker out and instructing them to remove everything regardless of the current contract.
They refused to honor the service contract and show up and take everything away when a strong independent woman actually demands folks show up on time and to perform services that were agreed upon by a contract. This worker who showed up was tall bald and fat and argumentative, coming up to my face, and wouldn't leave when asked until I called 911. What ever happened to, customer service?

Kevin is the absolute best! He is always responsive, informative and helpful. I have never had such great service. I'm so pleased and couldn't thank Laughlin's enough. I completely moved my quarterly care over and I recommend them to everyone I know. Thank you for taking care of my home and making me feel safe and comfortable!

Apparently, I signed up for a quarterly service, however, I thought that I had the option to cancel the service before they come out. They called me, left me a message stating they would like to come out and do service. I did not receive the message and so didn't call them and confirm the appointment. But, they decided to come out anyway and do service on my property without my consent and then charges me $135 and wants me to pay.
I don't believe any business should come out unless you get the consent of the owner even if it is under a quarterly service. Even after telling them what happened, they are still wanting me to pay full price. Not a good way to do business and will be losing my business with them.

I had Laughlin's out originally ten months ago. I purchased the year service and couldn't be happier. It took three trips to find all the entrances the mice had. The service man was diligent and blocked all the entrances. I haven't had a mouse in nine months. I am calling them today to help take care of the mouse infestation at my father's house. I would highly recommend Laughlin's.

I have been a regular client for 3-4 years now and highly recommend. I had a terrible problem with mice and used other services but they were unable to resolve. Laughlin's was very client focused, empathetic and responsive. They were very engaged, thorough and diligent.and they made recommendations that really helped cleared up our issues. With their help we've been pest free for the last two years.

I had them out yesterday to investigate some scratching I had heard in the attic over the weekend. They were prompt in communicating and returning my call Monday morning. After about 30 seconds in the attic the guy was quick to confirm I didn't have a mouse or squirrel problem and was mostly guessing that it was a bat but he seemed pretty ill equipped to deal with it as he had only done one before by his own admission.
He essentially left with telling me that there was indeed some droppings in my attic, but he couldn't tell how long they'd been there or that there was a problem at all. After doing a little research I can pretty much say there's an issue with Bat's but I'll be doing business elsewhere to remove them. If you have squirrels or mice, they're probably just fine. The only reason they're not a 1 is because they got back to me promptly and were on time. But given the quality of "inspection" I received I feel like I may as well have used my $100 to as a torch while I crawled around my own attic.
