I have ants in my car and can't figure out where they are coming from. Afraid to just randomly spray insecticide because of the smell and possibility of taking the paint off.
Terro liquid baits have done the job for me in the past. Just don't let them turn over.I have ants in my car and can't figure out where they are coming from. Afraid to just randomly spray insecticide because of the smell and possibility of taking the paint off.
Ant eater?:biggrin: Ants follow a trail left by other ants. If they are coming from outside the car watch for a train of ants and break the trail with some bug spray

Put the traps I described wherever the ants are. They will find them...Thank you for the tips. Part of my problem is that there are no trails. I know ants generally do this and you can find their source that way. They just randomly pop up on me which is frustrating.
There has only been a few here and there inside the cabin but it's outside where they come out of crevices.
The Queen has set up shop in your car, good luck. You can always pour gasoline on them and see what happens.Thank you for the tips. Part of my problem is that there are no trails.

IDK why, but some ants are attracted to current. I couple of times, I've had a wall switch go out and pulled the plate to discover a ball of ants shorting it out...My son has had the same issue. I think maybe they are avoiding the wet ground. For some reason they are attracted to electronic's.
Electrical appliances and boxes are usually safe and dry. One theory is that they die or are otherwise stressed by the electrical current, causing them to release alarm pheromones, drawing other ants to the location.IDK why, but some ants are attracted to current.
