^ i have no reason to lie about eating/drinking in my car! this started about two weeks ago, and ive been vaccuming my car like nuts since i found the first set of ants! Its gotta be something else, im blaming it on the rain and the ants looking for shelter!

either that or toyota made sweet tasting components in my car!

 

Pics?

 

LOL, nothing happened, have you ever seen "Joe's apartment" (old-school movie these days) ??

 

LOL....sorry, I must have missed the post where you said that you haven't been eating or drinking in your car. Has anyone else? If a friend spilled a small amount of soda or anything like that, it would be enough to attract them.

 

if worst comes to worst, you buy yourself an anteater... pretty easy to find in the black market

 

Well obviously it wasn't you eating in the car because there are in the back seat, but some of your passengers have some explaining to do. But you have the right idea, I have ants in my house every summer, it's a south thing I guess, but the gel stuff works good, just give it some time also those ant traps really do work good, better than anything else, so I might would get some of those. Good Luck.

 

omg that so happened to me they were everywhere! i hit my tail light and thousands swarmed out i was freaking out

 

i was waiting for someone to yell PICS OR BAN! or PICS OR IT DIDNT HAPPEN! lol

i think ill list ant traps under my mod list!
LOL


ive been vacuuming the car meticulously ever since i saw the first few ants, and i rarely have passengers in the back seat! other then loose dirt, there was no signs on my carpet or seats of anything ever being spilled!


so is anyone selling a used anteater?

 

Strip out your interior. See if you can find their actual nest inside the car. Apply poison directly. Ride around without your interior for a while. Clean / nuke your soft interior components. Stop parking under trees. Make sure to get between the wheel wells, behind the seating brace, and down around the side panels in your backseat.

 

^sounds like youve had this happen before! LOL

definitely good advice, will try it out if my first attack doesnt work!

 

Ugh... I have this problem but with spiders....

My car was sitting in a shop for about 3 years? 2005.

Cause I just now got it.

Kinda scares me while I'm driving... since i HATE SPIDERS

 

^why the hell was your car in a shop for 3 years!!!!!

you better have 1000hp or something! LOL

 

i know this is old, but i had the same prob.. when i first bought the car, found out there was like a colony IN my rear seat with larva and all that nasty ____... vacuumed it all out and havent had the problem since :D

 

i have an anteater new in box 500 OBO

box even has small holes for it to breathe

 

^ is it people friendly?

or is it "toss it in the car and run" type of anteater? lol

hope your not confusing it with a MANeater, those are no fun!

 

Find and kill the queen. The queen is probably inside your car somewhere.

 

One of the better threads on SL

 

^lol, of course!

going on 2 weeks with no ants, i feel my car faster from the reduced weight!
