I live in a hot humid climate, and I discovered I have some ants in my car after being out of town. I don't have any food nor have I spilled anything in my car.

I have NO idea how this happened, but I'm concerned they may have taken up residency in my vehicle.

How do I go about getting rid of them???

This is almost as good as the guy on VS that had an iguana behind his dash. One of the funniest threads ever.

I am not minimizing your ant problem but it could be worse. :)
