I think this must be the main reason -- Manasa was Shiva's child as Shiva's seed had touched an idol which had been erected by Kadru, the wife of sage Kashyap and the mother of the snakes.
Many regard Manasa to be the daughter of Lord Shiva, it is believed that Maa Manasa was the one who saved Lord Shiva from being poisoned during Samudra Manthan. Lord Shiva had drunk the dangerous poison Halahala, which otherwise would have destroyed the entire universe. The poison turned Shiva's throat blue as he drunk it but Manasa prevented it from traveling further into his body, thus saving Shiva from being poisoned entirely.
It is said that since she was not Parvati's daughter despite being Shiva's offspring, Parvati was jealous of the attention she received from Shiva. It is even believed that Parvathi actually blinded Manasa in one eye in a fit of rage, which stemmed from her jealousy.Shiva's affection for her also waned eventually due to the conflicts with Parvati about Manasa. Bitter and angry, Manasa Devi demanded worship from all mortals, who would otherwise suffer death from snakebite!
