Insect in car problem

[Jj5599]

How to handle? I saw cockroaches before and just now, some insect I can't identify. Will parking under blazing sun helps?

 

Haha, don't want to try pandan leaves. I don't want to gas them out with insecticide, that's last resort.

Told you how many times leow, stop making out in your car and leave dirty residues that attracts insects, for me I will put cockroach bait next to the car to get rid of the cockroaches, if you don't know what insect is the other, then call pestbuster

[Jj5599]

Haha, want to sterilize and kill all types of insects in the car, how?

[Ghostami]

Go supermarket buy those insect repellant boxes put in car. They are suppose to wipe them out.

Dettol la, not ever buying a 2nd hand black 3 series thanks to you

[Jj5599]

Dettol? spray or liquid?

[Kurtselva]

Tht time I saw a small cockroach in my car..Used the "combat" insect spray that have the nice smell..After that never see the cockroach again.

 

So either the spray worked or the cockroach sneaked out of the car before I sprayed

Try to take 2-3 hours on a sunday, go wash ur car with dettol in the interior, use the liquid one, mix with water, soak the cloth in it, and clean ur whole interior of the car, it should work

 

SIde Note: Why u no wan put pandan leaves, i tried before and it worked

Never see the cockroach again doesnt mean the roach is not inside your car liao. Sometimes you also thought your car very clean with no roaches. But sometimes you might happen to be at the right time and right place when the roach come out for "shopping", and then you saw it! Or maybe also when the roaches come out for "walk walk" and you never see it.

Thanks for ruining my hope that the roach is no longer in the car

 

But I still strongly feel that it is not in the car Or even if it is, it is in some corner

I would rather the roach is alive in some corner rather than dead in some corner. Cause if the roach is dead in some corner, it might attract others unknown insect to your car! Just take it that the roach is not in your car if you dont see it.

 

I remembered in my previous car, i have been keeping it very clean and thought there is no roaches in the car. But one night while i stopped at a traffic lights waiting, suddenly saw one unknown creature 'cat walking' infront of the dashboard area. And it was roach and luckily i managed to catch it! From then, i dont believe the car is 'free' from roaches, no matter how clean the car is.

I used to put a baby lizard for pest control. Cheap and good volunteer. Cockcroach does eat dried pandan leaves for food. Insecticide does promote asthma in children

Go NTUC spend $7 buy the cockroach bait.

Put 3 in the car. The remaining put in your home kitchen.

It works 99.99%
