Ants!
Well guys, I have this new 1980 El Camino only to find a tiny thing causing a HUGE problem. I pulled the carpet, seats, headliner and dash. When I did I found nests of ants ALL OVER. There were not hundreds or thousands, it was literally millions!
I have pulled every piece of insulation and interior out of this car/truck possible besides the heat and A/C box. The ants were even in the fuse block, inside the A/C and heater box, blower motor, every vacuum valve, etc. I have been spraying and bombing these ants for about a week now and still have the problem. I pulled the cowl and they are in there as well.
Has anyone ever had this problem before?
I have tried bug bombs, bait, spray, etc and no luck. I pulled the rubber weatherstripping and they are even behind that as well and every piece of trim. I bought new interior but do not want to put it in and have them re-nest but also I need to hurry and get this car put back together since it's my daily driver and needs to be inspected and new tires put on.
Thanks for any suggestions and help!www.streamlineautocare.com
If you wan't something done right, then you have to do it yourself!
Sorry for your loss of friend Mike McGee, Shine. Great trans men are few and far between, it seems. Sadly, Mike Frade was only 66 and had been talking about retirement for ten years that I know...
