I would certainly recommend John Alvey if you have a problem. Came out to us within two hours. When the wasps returned the following week, I called John and he returned straight away. Thanks John, great job.

Came home to Formby from a weekend away to find a very active wasp nest under our extension roof fascia. Booked Mr Alvey online for the following day but he called to say he was in the area and arrived within 2 hours and treated it with absolutely no fuss or bother. Excellent service

Great service as usual. I have used John for years and really happy with everything. Called out today to deal with a wasp nest and as the wasps were dead didn’t charge. Will continue to use the service quick reliable and effective.

Marie organises the diary and you are kept updated about the arrival time. John provides an excellent service and quickly gets rid of any pesky uninvited guests !! John treats your home as if it was his own.
I have used the J Alvey Pest Control on more than one occasion and recommended them as they provide a 5 star service

We've used the Alvey Group twice now to remove Wasps nests from our property (across a span of 3 years, our house must just look attractive to them!) And the work has always been efficient, professional and respectable. Even though we are now moving homes, if we have any pest problems, I'll be straight onto them!

I've known John for a long time and I was very impressed with when he joined my team at work.
In his business he is both knowledgeable and reliable and I have engaged his services on several occasions with excellent results each time. I thoroughly recommend him and wouldn't hesitate to employ his services in the future.

John always comes to assist within days of request and has an amazing understanding of everything with nature. There are times he has come out and not charged. I would highly recommend him. His wife books in the appointments and is extremely helpful and efficient too. Great team. Would highly recommend them.

Professional, knowledgeable and efficient service. The lady I spoke to on the phone was incredibly helpful and was able to identify our bee problem with a couple of questions, then sent a lovely man over to safely and carefully remove the bees the same day. Reasonably priced as well. Great service, highly recommend!
