ATLANTA, GEORGIA, July 28, 2004: Rollins, Inc. (NYSE:ROL), a premier North
American consumer services company, today reported net income grew 71.8% to
$23.8 million or $0.51 per diluted share for the second quarter ended June 30,
2004, compared to $13.9 million or $0.30 per diluted share for the same period
in 2003. Net income for the quarter included gains from the sale of assets of
$8.1 million net of tax, or $0.17 per share. Revenue for the quarter grew 12.2%
to $207.7 million compared to $185.1 million for the second quarter ended June
30, 2003. This increase includes $13.7 million in revenue resulting from the
April 30, 2004 acquisition of Western Industries, Inc.

Net income for the first six months of 2004 climbed 53.9% to $32.5 million or
$0.70 per diluted share compared to net income of $21.1 million or $0.46 per
diluted share for 2003. Revenues increased to $366.4 million for the first six
months of 2004 compared to $340.2 million for the prior year.

Rollins' balance sheet remains strong with total assets increasing to $410.0
million and stockholders' equity increasing to $169.6 million.

Gary W. Rollins, President and Chief Executive Officer of Rollins, Inc. stated,
"Our second quarter was extremely positive, beginning with the acquisition of
Western, which is already having a favorable impact on our revenue and cash
flow. We were able to fund all but $15 million of the acquisition primarily from
cash on hand and our strong cash flow enabled us to complete the quarter with no
debt from the purchase, and with almost $22 million in cash and short-term
investments."


"Additionally, in the second quarter, we experienced our strongest organic
growth since the second quarter of 2000. These results were attributable to a
good pest season and the successful implementation of our 2004 sales
initiatives. We were further bolstered by improved customer retention resulting
from our service quality initiatives."

Through its wholly owned subsidiaries, Orkin, Inc. and Western Pest Services,
