Prevention of outdoor fire ant infestation at health care facilities

Prevention of outdoor fire ant infestation at health care facilities
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.
