Just talked with the wife, no rain so far. Next good chance is tomorrow afternoon.

I have sugar ants in the truck and have no clue how they got in and not sure how to get them out! No food has been in the truck, No drinks.. I noticed a few on the outside of the truck but didnt think anything of it.. Picked up my son at daycare and opened the passenger rear door and there was probably 50 of em on the inside of the door. Any ideas to get them out??

Coy, try this stuff:

http://www.terro.com/terro-liquid-ant-killer

Put several drops on some pieces of cardboard and place the cardboard pieces on your floorboards, on the seat, in the door handle, etc. (wherever the ants are or where they are nearby). Leave it overnight and they should be dead by morning, as well as any friends they may have with them.

I tried this once on my brother's old Bronco, but mine was a homemade remedy made from Borax and sugar. I never saw any dead ants, but they disappeared, so I assume it did the job.

That's weird...definitely not much under the hood they'd be attracted to since the engine is so small so they probably settled on the interior.

Can it John. My guess is they were attracted to the sweet sound of sirens pulling Coy over all the time because his power is uncontrollable!

Sugar...boric acid and water and then dampen on cotton *****. Wife does this when we get them in the kitchen. Just about what JohnBoy suggested.
