Get those ants out of your car with Toyota service tips!

Have an ant-free ride with these Toyota service tips!

  • Giving your car a deep clean! More than likely, there is something in your car that is tasty to the ants. If something is there, they will find it. To stop the ants from searching your car for a colony-wide snack, clean your car thoroughly. Vacuum the seats and floors, getting in the nooks and crannies where crumbs and particles can fall and get stuck. Do your best to vacuum under your car's seats and even the tight spaces, like between the seat and center console. You can save time on this task and bring your vehicle into our Toyota Service Center in Charlotte to have our experts detail your car's interior and exterior!
  • Using baits and traps! If cleaning isn't enough, you may need to invest in baits or traps for your car. If you have children or pets riding in your car, it's best to find baits that are non-toxic. For the best results, place traps in your car on the floor and under the seats when you get out of the car but be sure to remove them before you ride in the car again.
  • Finding home remedies that work! Our Toyota Service Center technicians in Charlotte suggest a few home remedies for ant removal like sprinkling crushed black pepper or hard salt on the floors of your car. It's important to remember to vacuum these up in a few days once the job is done!
