Help Me! i am pretty sure i have an ant nest in the inside of the exterior of my car....? ?

I need to know if a pestiside bomb will hurt my engine and all? Will it kill them?

Update:

by the way i need to be clear on this, i dont know where the nest is, but i know there is one cause there are way too many just to be coming up from the ground, and they come out of most of the cracks of the interior

    I suggest using Grant's Ant Stakes/ Sticks - available at any hardware, garden, grocery, drug store. They contain a gel that ants get on their feet, carry back to the colony, and poof - all gone. It wouldn't hurt your car. You just need to figure a way to place the ant sticks someplace the ants are walking. An added advantage of this approach: even if the ants are outside the car (in your driveway or garage), it will get them.

    Spray raid where the ant colony is it will kill them yes.

    Don't drive your car for at least 3 hours after you spray the raid.

    Why did you say inside of the exterior? That is an oxymoron.
