How to deal with small flying insects in the car?
2 Answers
Is there something sweet in the car that attracts small insects? If so, remove it from the car. Park the car in the sunlight, and the small insects will be suffocated. Buy some mugwort sticks from the pharmacy, set the car to internal circulation, place an iron plate at the right front foot, light the mugwort, and fumigate the car interior.
After driving for so many years, I've found that having small flying insects in the car is a common issue, especially during summer when they're easily attracted. My suggestion is to first park and open the windows to let the insects fly out, but make sure the surroundings are clean to prevent more from entering. If the insects don't leave, you can use a car vacuum to suck them up, being gentle to avoid damaging the interior. Prevention is key—I always avoid eating in the car because crumbs or spilled drinks can attract bugs. Additionally, regularly clean the floor mats and gaps between seats, using a damp cloth to wipe away surface dirt. Keep a small spray bottle in the car with water and a few drops of peppermint oil, spraying occasionally to repel insects. Remember, safety comes first—wear gloves when handling to prevent allergies, especially since children in the car are more susceptible. These small habits have made driving much more comfortable and worry-free for me.
