Marching In One By One

[birdbirdbat]

help! Small red ants have moved into my G4 i book. they seem to like its compact space and sleek design this can't be good! ive cleaned it well and i store it at night inside a plastic bag, inside its case. any other suggestion to get them to move out?

Had a notebook hard drive fail that way. Tiny (really tiny) ants ate the seal, moved in, and killed the drive. You might want to use some anti ant chalk to mark the areas where they are passing.

Same happens on our iBook and MacBook Pro. I guess they are attracted to the heat?

Not much that I can think of to do; on the iBook you can remove the keyboard and spray it with compressed air. Other than that, I plan to take advantage of the AppleCare plan if a problem ever does arise. I don't think spraying compressed air randomly into the vents is such a good idea.
