FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

                           Orkin Pest Control Named to
                           Training Magazine's Top 100

ATLANTA,  Feb 23, 2003 (BUSINESS WIRE) --  Atlanta-based  Orkin Pest Control was
recognized by Training  magazine as part of its prestigious Top 100 list,  which
was announced at Training's annual awards banquet tonight. Orkin ranked 58th, as
well as being named an Editor's  Choice.  This is the first year the company has
submitted an entry to the celebrated competition.

Training  magazine,  the  training  industry's  premiere  publication,  annually
selects  100  organizations  that  excel at  human  capital  development.  These
companies  are chosen based on criteria such as training  practices,  evaluation
methods,  and outstanding training  initiatives.  Orkin will be highlighted in a
feature article in the March 2003 issue of Training.

Orkin's  training  department,  called  Orkin  University,  is headed by Dr. Bob
Price,  vice  president of training,  and  includes 27  performance  improvement
specialists.  They  operate  under the acronym  SERVE  (speed,  execution,  ROI,
versatility,  and excellence) to support employee development from the top down.
In addition to the dedicated  trainers,  Orkin's  division vice  presidents  and
region managers spend three days a week coaching employees in the field.

In addition to the Top 100 honor,  Orkin has also been chosen one of  Training's
Editor's Choice recipients. Editor's Choice recipients are select companies that
have piqued the  interest of Training  editors  with the  positive  environments
created for their  workforce.  This year,  only five companies were selected for
the Editor's Choice list.

Orkin  University's  outstanding  training  program also boasts the pest control
industry's only full hands-on training center in the U.S. The $3 million Atlanta
facility includes a full-sized,  fully functional house for hands-on learning of
pest and termite  control  techniques.  Cutaway walls and examples of all common
building  techniques  provide trainees with a first-hand  knowledge of what they
could expect to find in houses across the country.

"The Training  Center gives us a unique ability to make a connection  with a new
employee," says Price. "We also train  experienced  employees to keep them fresh
on the ever-changing technological advances in the pest control industry."

Atlanta-based  Orkin Pest  Control  is a leading  provider  of pest and  termite
control services  throughout the United States and Canada.  Founded in 1901, the
company has more than 400  branches  nationwide  serving 1.6 million  customers.
Orkin Pest  Control is a wholly  owned  subsidiary  of Rollins,  Inc.,  which is
traded on the New York Stock Exchange (ROL).
