You can purchase a few glue traps, sprinkle some sugar in the center of the traps, and place them in the corners of the car where ants are frequently seen. You can place sweet fruits like grapes on the car mats. Use a cloth to wipe down the entire interior of the car, spray insecticide, and then close all doors and windows tightly.
I once encountered the problem of an ant nest in my car, which was particularly annoying, especially in summer. One time, I found an ant nest under the seat, and it was really scary. To eradicate them, the first step is to locate the nest by carefully inspecting the gaps in the cabin, trunk, and carpets. Then, thoroughly clean the car: use a vacuum to remove ants and debris, and wipe all surfaces with soapy water. Next, you can use ant baits or homemade traps, such as placing a mixture of sugar and boric acid in corners to attract and eliminate the ants. Finally, prevention is key: avoid parking near grass or trees, regularly inspect the interior of the car, keep it clean and dry, and don’t let food residues linger. Ants can bite or damage wires, posing safety hazards, so deal with them promptly. I’ve done all this, and it worked well.
