Infestation

Does anyone know of any paint/interior friendly pestisides? I'll be driving down the road and these little itty bitty ants will freakin crawl outa nowhere. As far as i know i haven't found anyone else with this problem. They're inside, in the door jams, and in the front grill. I sprayed my grille with a garden hose and washed out like a hundred of them. I'm thinking that their living off the bugs that i hit cause i keep my car CLEAN, i vaccum the interior like every couple days and wash it every week. I HATE ANTS!!!! Does anyone have any idea on how I can send these little bastards to the darkest firery pits of hell?

Re: Infestation

You know what it's the freaking heat, it's been like over a 100* for about a week, and all the ants are all over the house, you might want to spray raid around the ground of your car maybe that will keep them away

Re: Infestation

Throw one of those insect bombs in there and then fabreeze that shit and leave the windows open and vacuum the shit out of it. That will take care of it. I have a worse problem once. I had a vette that I was storing for winter that become the home of a family of mice.

Re: Infestation

it would suck though if the chemicals were still in there and one of my dumbass friends desides to see what my seat tastes like. I should put up a sign in my car saying, "Lick up upholstery at own risk."

Re: Infestation

You just air out the area once it goes off. Thats what everyone does and its easier to air out a car than a room. Also they have scented bombs I think but febreeze will smell better IMO.

Re: Infestation

i used to have a roach problem and i sprayed some bug spary stuff for your house in there every time i would see one and cleaned it out a lot. like really good. and they eventually died. then i asked a bug man when he was at our house and he said dont spray anything of any sort in it cause it is not good for your nomatter what. and i told him it was for indoors and he said it dont matter. he said to buy traps and set em around. and to buy good ones. but i havnt seen any bugs since the new engine.actually now that i think of it my bros old el camino had lots of ants and we used traps and they worked after like a week. then you just clean very very very good. good luck man, i hate bugs

lol anyone else notice the advertisements at the top of this thead?(vaginal odors in particular)
I have never had/heard of anyone having problems with anything like this, might be because of the colder climate here(maybe good for something other than icing the roads and freezing my face off).

Thats because they were actually just sticks..

My dad's 76 corvette restoration project had wasp nest in two of the wheel wells... My brother and I, solved the problem by kicking the rubber of the wheel and hitting all the wasps that come out with tennis rackets. Most fun you will ever have with a tennis racket (or with bees for that matter).
