The first 25 to 50 feet around the outside of a building should be considered a critical zone and regularly surveyed for fire ant infestation. |
Allow 18 to 20 inches of clear air space between the building and the mature height and width of ornamental plants. |
If irrigation is used, make sure sprinkler heads are pointed away from the building and not positioned so as to wet the building, thus providing moisture for insect infestation. |
Keep the soil grade sloping away from the building to prevent accumulation of water against the foundation. |
If rain gutters are used, make sure that down spouts are clear and water runs freely away from the facility. |
Contract with a pest control service to routinely inspect and (if appropriate) apply insecticides to keep the perimeter of health care facilities free of fire ant infestation. |
