These messages are coming from some code which is issuing Deferreds, not from ReconnectingClientFactory.  You need to add an errback to those Deferreds in your application code.  There's no way to write a catch-all, just like there's no way to write a catch-all that can stop exceptions from being raised in basic Python.

I can't say more without a code example, preferably a <http://sscce.org/>.
