In May, Atlanta, Ga.-based Northwest Exterminating, a Rollins company, opened its fourth office location. It is in Hermitage, Tenn., northeast of Nashville, Tenn., and will serve the greater middle Tennessee and southern Kentucky markets.

“Seeing the trust of our Tennessee customers grow over the last four years has been incredible,” Blake Southerland, the Hermitage Service Center manager, said in a news release. “Opening our fourth office will give us even more opportunities to serve our customers and community with the extraordinary service and care they deserve. We’re excited to continue the growth in the area with our people-first team.”
