    I have a bad case of Galant Ants!

    I posted this in this section because it is a problem!
    I hardly drive my galant, today I got in and saw the ants all over my mirror. I have had them exploring on my Galant for some time now and they usally get knocked off when driving down the road. Today I took my Girl out to get something to eat and when we opened the door monuds of ants fell out between the seal and the door. They are not in the car just between the seal. I have never seen them like this before, they have made their home on my car. I will post pictures of the ants but just imagine kicking a ant hill and you will see what it looks like. How do I get rid of them? If they are between the door, can I just pressure wash the car and knock them out?

    yuck.

    spray your car down with ant killer spray. spray the wheels, so they cant climb up. spray the edges of the doors, the floors, etc. spray down the whole car.

    If you post stupid and incorrect information, you will get red nuggets.

    It makes me want to burn my car to the ground. I keep my car spotless, not dirt inside. I don't know what they are after.

    why don't u remove them? like take some compressed air and blow them away or go to the car was hand like vacuum them out. all those sprays will kill them but you still got to deal with the mess they left behind.

    I vaccumed them out and washed my car. When I got home I went inside to rest before spraying the ant spray. I went back outside and they were all over the car again. I don't know where they are coming from. I guess now I am representing the TGAC (the galant ants center).

    I just got my carpets cleaned, meaning I took out my seats and washed my carpets. I do park under trees but I move my car around different spots and they still find my car.

    That is strange. yeah, get some ant traps, kill the bastards, then clean your car really well, and park it somewhere else.
