Default Antz!!

Has anyone else ever gotten infested with this plague? If so, how do I get rid of them? I rarely if ever eat in the car, and have basically torn everything apart in an effort to see why they are so interested in my ride, but no luck. Any help would be most appreciated.

I had a horrible ant problem last fall. I would kill what seemed like hundreds of ants each day, they never seemed to decrease. I also posted this question and most said to put the car in the garage and bomb it. I was just about to do that, when all of the sudden about 5 days after the ants appeared, they were gone! Maybe give it some time and see if they leave. I'm pretty sure I got mine from parking in the grass at a party. I probably parked over an ant mound and they all got in my car. They will probably leave when kill them by hand like I did for a few days, and after they find no food or water to live off of.

That's sick, trying parking somewhere else, I know you're probably not right over an ant hill, maybe in the path of one. There was this chalk that you could buy at home depot and stuff that is an insect repellant for ants and stuff. I traced out my driveway and kept them out with a thick line of insecticide.

What can you say.... The ants have good taste when it comes to cars they infest.

Yeah, my CRX had them a few months ago. WE had a LOT of rain and I think they were looking for a dry home. They were gone a couple of days later...

If you look real closely it says "Nissan Motor Company" on each ant!

Just put those ant traps under your seats and in a few days they will all be gone...I had a lot of ants in my dorm room and those ant traps worked really well.
