How the hell does this happen. Im driving one day and i see like 7-10 ants crawling on the sunroof visor, didn't think much of it so i roll down the window and brush them outside. Then on Sunday i cleaned my car, open my sunroof and stick my head out of it and i notice like 50 ants just crawlin around like its just another day. WTF confused.gif

I wana know what the fuk are they living off of. I heard they ilke warm places but why my car? frown.gif I don't want to fumigate the whole car cuz i think they are actually living in the body of the car, not inside the car. I saw a small hole where they were coming from.. I could just plug it up. Any suggestions??

haha you could always throw a bug bomb in there. i'm not sure if it would smell up your interior though but that's what febreeze is for.

ok for one CLEAN THE DAMN CAR lol if your are is clean think again look for french fries under the seat.... ect. i you can find them in the cab place a lil ant killer in there (the ones like the roach motels). you dont wanna bomb the car b/c 1.)you will never get the smell out 2.) the fumes WILL hurt you too, there isnt enough air to vent out the car and it will soak into the seats harming little ones. if you can see in the frame were some are spray a lil raid ant killer, the kind that leaves a residue. if that doesnt work then you will just have to wait it out sorry dude

clean your car out VERY GOOD, im talking every little last nook and cranny in the entire car. then put ant traps all over, a couple in engine bay, and a couple inside, and a couple in the trunk. even on the ground under the car. then after a week just vacum out the dead ones and us hould be fine.

I would do that, but from what i know of Ant, as soon as you piss them off, they go Bizerk and just spread out like wildfire. Which would be worse off. Atleast now i know where they are.

Stealth is my best offense. Know where the enemy is and attack with silent deadliness.

what ever you do dont let me get a hold of your car.... i hate ants i will kill every single one and tourture them. but heres my best idea
gut the car it takes like 2 hours to do that. make sure the water plugs are still in place on the floor. then make sure all the holes in your firewall are pluged up. ok now for the fun get the liquid ant traps they use in a house. make sure its the kind that they can take back to the hive. use all 6 that should wipe out any ant problem in your home or auto. but make sure its gutted!!! cause then you can 1. make sure theres no spilled coke's or sprites inde the carpet. and 2 it gives you more room to work with. anyway if you really wanna have fun you can get a jar of ants from your car. tourture them 1 by 1, by holding them with tweezers and rip of each leg one after the other. then poor a lil hydrochorlic acid all over them. once you have completed all that you should be fine. if that doesnt work your ****ed. we got huge ant problems in my old house in philly every summer. i didnt start to tourture the lil bastards until they started crawling all over me in my sleep and biting me. that sucked!!! ok good luck.

fire ants are a serious problem in the southern USA, they can be fatal and attack in huge swarms, their ites also really hurt. I dunno, if they're fire ants be careful (even tho im sure theres not enough in your car to kill you haha ).. I really really hate ants, I suggest ant traps and some raid, also try to find out where they're feeding.. take away their food and ya kill 'em
