They are looking for Food & Water. This is the # 1 reason I NEVER eat in my car....lol. The other ideas to spray, febreeze, clean, etc. sound gr8 2 me. Also, some Car Wash places do 'Detailing'...those folks should also have some knowledge on how to deal w/ your situation. Good Luck !

I agree with the other suggestions. Except after spraying the in side of the car. I would run the car with the heater on.Spraying raid fragrance free into the cowl. The cawl is where the fresh air from the outside gets into the ac/heater unit. That should take care of the ants.
Next I would wait 24hr. Than repeat using Lysol odder and disinfectant Spray at least half a can.
Opps almost forgot. The cawl intake is located just below the windshild. It's that thing that looks like a rain gutter.

Spray it real well (it will smell better that tons of ants), put ant traps in the car, remove the back seat and spray under there, spray in the trunk and under the rugs. You can use a air freshiner after you get the ants.
Or, call an exterminator and he'll do it like it was a house if you can afford that.

There is only one thing to use - RAID MAX EARTH SCENTS. At least it wont smell too badly of bug spray, but you gotta use the best on the market and kill them all. After you got the bugs gone, close all the air vents and put the car in air recycle mode only. Turn on the AC as well full blast will driving.

Use a fogger or just spray the inside of your vehicle..... then a day later when the ants are dead, use frbreeze to get rid of the ant spray smell.

You can get rid of ants by using pest control.
