Roaches in the vents...
So every time I get in the car at night, roaches start crawling around when the light comes on and they crawl back into the air vents. I'm assuming they got in there because of my lack of use of the darned thing. Think the dealer will fumigate for me?

Rep Power: 0 I would eat roaches for $275. In the end it's all food. Down the hatch!
About your car, yea tiny roaches sometimes live in the AC ducts of older cars because it's a dark and cool environment, it's pretty easy for them to find a way in too.
If you want to get them all out, you have to remove your dash and physically clean out the ducts. I've never seen a whole colony, usually 1 or maybe 2, but by the time you find them they are dead, my 93 civic had a tiny dead one in the vent.

Rep Power: 0 I have had spiders in my car before and stuff but that was because my dad left the stupid sun roof open a few times but thank goodness I have never seen roaches until I moved to Phoenix and now I am out of there but that is gross. I couldn't even drive my car I would sell it and get something new AHH. I hate them too. I could care less if they are outside but inside my car, they would die.

Rep Power: 0 I don't he lives in a trailer park, he must live in his car.[IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG] The roaches in my car aren't the ones that run when light comes on, they usually stay in my ashtray. Kidding aside, I don't think the dealership will do anything, but if they do have something about your new friends then you will probably have to pay, I don't think there is a warranty out for cockroaches. Just go buy some roach killer.

Thats just nasty...
And I would recommend not trying to cook them. Imagine the smell... [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-puke.gif[/IMG]

I've neve seen roaches in my car but I have seen spiders. I like spiders though, they protect me from other little critters that I don't see. hehehe But my girlfriend despises spiders with a passion...
I just don't tell her there are some in my car..
I say, take out the vent covers and the centre console (where the deck is ) and stick a vacuum in there and suck those nasty things out. Better yet, blow them all away by using one of them leaf-blowers. That'll take care of them

Rep Power: 0 roaches are attracted to water not so much food......are you parking somewhere where there is a lot of water? if you are watering your lawn at night try not parking near it. thats pretty discusting though....why not get your house fumigated to kill them

Rep Power: 0 hehe man those aftermarket roaches are really sumthign arent they, but I dont think your AC system is under warranty now, well it might be if they cant prove that the roaches caused your problem.
