If you park your car outside, they might have a nest somewhere in your car. Disturbing, eh?

I had an old Ford truck that had occasional ants in the cabin. After months of seeing an ant or two every day, I finallly saw tons of them crawling around in the passenger wheel well. I went to a car wash and used the pressure washer, and THOUSANDS of ants came out from behind the wheel well liner.

If you park outside, it can happen. I keep my vehicles very clean, but apparently these ants preferred a clean pad.

I had two incidents with these freakin ants so far this spring. In my backyard, while cutting the grass and some bigger ones that actually made it in my house. I put down a couple Combat traps and used that Combat glue which did a good job in luring them to the traps. Within about two weeks , all the ants were gone. Now I don't recommend using the glue around your car but instead you may wanna put it around the openings of the traps at least to bring them to the bait.

Well at least the ants had some good taste to make a home a Lexus and not some Pontiac Sunfire
