Answer 1

Call an Exterminator to spray your house since you have more than likely carried them indoors now from your car via your purse or grocery bags...when they spray the outside of your house, have them spray close to your car and put a little bait in your car...you don't want those creatures getting a foothold anywhere near your house~~And NO the heat won't kill them,remember those bugs can withstand a Nuclear Blast!

Answer 2

how long can you not drive?

there are room foggers, that'll work.

but you need to leave it for a while.

if you do, be careful.

a room size can is way too much for a car.

let it spray outside for a bit before closing it up in the car.

in addition, you need to open ALL the windows later, to let it air out.

maybe for a few days.

you surely don't want to be in it the first day.

Answer 3

Roaches have been around for millions of years and will probably outlast all of us.

The heat won't kill them, in fact it might make them reproduce faster.

Go to your local hardware store and buy one of those bug bombs made for roaches and let it off in your car with the windows rolled up.

The critters are probably feeding off your cars foam exterior. The are disgusting with their droppings.

Answer 4

DO NOT ST OFF A ROACH FOGGER IN YOUR CAR!!!!!!!!!!!!

One the chemicals will ruin the seats

Two, the spray is propane. One spark from a clock of a radio or anything electrical and your car blows up

I have seen it happen with a car once and a boat once.

See if you can borrow a C02       not a dry chemical........ fire extinguisher from a shop or garage. Offer to pay for the recharge.....it's cheap. Roll the windows up, fill the car with CO2.... the little buggers strangle. Do it again in two weeks for the 'next generation'.
