Help - Black Ants in my new C
This is crazy, but....
Over the last week I have been finding black ants crawling on the console over ash tray. Each day I seem to be killing more and more while driving. Not to mention my mind racing and thinking they are crawling on me!!!
Any one have any suggestions on how to eliminate this problem??
Thanks

I had this same problem when I bought my BMW. The car probably just sat on an anthill on the lot.
You'll take about a month killing them all from time to time.
It's embarrassing but other than having the dealer do a complete detail inside and out of the car, they'll keep crawling around

In my last car, spiders kept appearing! They usually looked a bit different, so I don't think it was a family or whatever, but every few months one would be hanging from my visor, creepy thing! Scary stuff. ha-ha. I sure hope the MB doesn't get spiders.

Ants need a path to moisture. That's why a house is protected from ants by treating the foundation.
