The inside of your car is not the typical place to find a cockroach infestation. Regardless,How to Handle and Prevent Cockroach Infesting Your Car Articles roaches will go wherever there's a food and water source, including an available source in your car. Having cockroaches in your home is unpleasant, but dealing with them in the close quarters of your car can be unsettling.

The roaches hide well. These bugs hide under the paper trash you have dropped in the car, gum wrappers, coffee cups, and then the bugs hide in your car under the torn floor carpet and between the folds of cloth in your seats of your car.And you are sitting on them when you drive, because the bugs in the car like to hide under the seat covers.These roaches just wait for it to get quiet and then late at night in the dark and the car is parked, the roaches, ants and whatever bugs you have living in your car come out and feast on all that leftover food you dropped and left for them...all because you were lazy. But it is your car and you can be as messy as a teenagers bedroom. So lets talk about how to get rid of the bugs in your car. Vacuum the interior of your car completely.

Vinegar cleans the surfaces of food crumbs, spills and stains.
