hmm... in that case... push your car into a volcano. Ants hate fire.

Throw away the old Burger King bags and empty coke cans in the storage bins.
The ants will follow.
Tweezers are effective.
Toothpicks work, but tend to put little dents in the upholstery.

they do make these "ant traps" where ants are attracted and then go in alittle whole and i guess die for some reason in side. it looks like a multi door igloo. you could put it on the passenger side floor or something.
