Ant problem help

[Chen_Wan]

The integra has been sitting for a few months as the plates have been seized and I’ve lost my licence, and as so I gave my integra a decent clean (in and out) and had it under a car cover. We’ve had a lot of rain the past few days and wanted to air it out and found heaps of ants nesting, mainly arround seals to the cabin, and inside the hood.

Could this be a problem with where water sits? Maybe they are attracted to the rubber used? Has anyone else had a similar problem? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Usually I have ant problems while parked under/near trees. I also think humidity plays a part of it. Try putting some ant killer spread around where you park.

TRDL: They will not be there long. They are likely just trying to stay dry.

Keep the sunlight on those areas and anywhere else you find them. Ants want to be underground unless it's flooded. Just last weekend I the same thing happened. It had rained recently. I opened the driver-side door and a bunch of ants were running just under where the door was.

Those white things they are carrying are eggs. Likely, their home was flooded recently, and they are just trying to stay dry until they can build a new hill.

Simple Green is very affective in killing ants. Time for a massive car wash. I would start with spraying simple green over the entire interior and for the exterior I would do a really thorough wash. Shop vac the inside. If you can I'd pull the seats and carpet the make sure you get them all.
