Ants on car

[Keithchue]

Hi Everyone,

 

I did a search on the folders and found that none of them have the same issue as me. , but I have ants crawling out of the car engine bay on to the roof top, presumably hot after the engine have run a bit.. how do I get rid of them?

I can't seem to find the website anymore but this is what you do.

 

Use an empty mineral water bottle, cut it down to 2-3". Next fill it up with 2-3 table spoon of baking soda and icing sugar, ratio 1:1, mix it thoroughly and place it where you suspect the ants are. Let them bring the mixture back to the nest. It has to be icing sugar so that the ants can't tell the diff between the baking soda or sodium bicarbonate.

 

The idea is to let the ants ingest the baking soda to react with the acid in their stomach. Cause so much gas in their tiny bodies that it has no where to go. It will kill them.

Your car is the jetta that always stuck at vw workshop? Maybe the mechanics were munching snacks while they were fixing your car.
