There isn't a configuration option for this. Nagios will keep the log files 
indefinitely for reporting (you can go back 2+ years through the web interface).

You can cron a simple find -exec rm to do that but be aware that you won't have 
any reporting capability beyond what you keep.

Also, because you specifically mention it, using logrotate will break reporting 
in nagios. The file naming convention must be exact for nagios to find the 
files.
