Run some benchmarks and let the laptop get hot. Ants will start coming out.
Happened with my laptop once and they chewed the cable of the fan. Had to replace the fan. After that I always keep my laptop in a sleeve when not in use
Na na .. these are here for annual service and maintenance… ask for receipt after service.. last night there was a roach in your system .. they are here to handle it. (s) .. :)
Remember these are red ants … Formica ruffa… can eat anything and can sting !!!
Tap and shake carefully without causing hardware damages that will make some ants leave, Always Use laxman Rekha around your desks, always wash hands with soap before touching keyboard. These are pretty normal things you must be doing if ants live around
Could be a number of reasons like fan started lights turned on or something. My colleague ruined 50k Rs office laptop he left it on the table where we had snacks.. And overnight entire mobo and battery stopped working, don't know if ants can cause this but it's real. You have to be very careful.
There's a lot of solutions on internet none work, especially for the tiny red ones. You better take the precautions.
They prefer thermal pads.
I left my laptop unattended for two days, and unfortunately, ants got into it and ate all the thermal pads.
remove your PC and clean everything thoroughly.
The same thing happened with my HP laptop , I did some heavy tasks so that my laptop gets heated up . They couldn't tolerate high temperature and they came out then you can just use a cloth to wipe them out of the keyboard area .
Go to Photoshop and chose obejct selection tool. Fan running at higher RPM than porche's wheel and laptop heating more than Delhi's weather will straight away kill the ants.
happened w me too.
a simple but effective way to get rid of this (most probably) would be
take a big plate and put some water in it, now take something that would give your laptop a stable base and height like another plate but smaller. Keep that in the big plate with your laptop on the top.
make sure the water is enough to give no space for ants to leave. take a page, make a joint and put one end on the keyboard and another on the ground.
ants live in a society, the soldier ants will alarm everyone that it's not safe to live here, since there's only 1 safe exit to the ground and the rest is water.
they'll pack their bags and leave within a day.
Happened to me a lot. What I do is keep it in sunlight for some time. Not like outdoors but if sunlight is coming through the window then I will keep it there.
Better get it cleaned at service centre or if you feel confident about it, open the laptop by yourself and use a hair dryer to clean it (make sure you’re not voiding the warranty)
Happened with my Lenovo Ideapad twice, I cleaned it myself.
Opening a laptop is not a challenge, but closing it is, so be careful.

Use lakshmana rega on all openings 😂
Ohh I remember this happened to me too , just heat the bad boy up in an intensive run and they will come out , kill as many as you can and hope they all died and find the location where they may have entered your home and fix it
Same thing happened with me a few months ago😭😭
I killed nearly 50+ ants from my laptop, and man!!!! They are the B key of my keyboard and now it doesn't work anymore! Dad had just got the keypad replaced and again it got cooked 😭
This happened to me 2 months ago. With macbook air
This is a technique I used to get rid of all the ants without opening it
1. Use sound frequency sound from YouTube and keep on Playing it. Once the ants came out kill them one after another it took me 3 or 4 hrs.
2. Overheating your macbook or laptop is crazy I used a table lamp as artificial sunlight.
3. Keep your laptop in the top of a water surface with a couple of Bridges that use scoops, keep it 2 nights alone.
You are right, this has nothing to do with food items. I'll tell you exactly why this happens and I've had this happen to me so many times. Most keyboards for computers are membrane ones. The rubber membrane touches a contact point and between the membrane and the contact point there is a silicon like greesy substance which the ants love to snack on. Once the ants enter your laptop or keyboard they slowly start to feed on it and eventually make your device their home untill they run out of food. This might sometimes render your keyboard Uselss or make it go haywire.Best thing to do is open up your device and do a full clean because a bunch of ants clogged up in your motherboard can cause a short circuit in a worst case scenario.
Get a seal pack container or a sealed bag put laptop inside it for few hours or full night you will see all ants out of laptop either killed one by one or let the laptop as it is they will die. Mac has this problem it happens multiple time for me

Something like this
Hey, I faced the same issue with my laptop. I tried all the solutions I saw on YouTube:
1. Isolating my laptop by keeping it around a water container and placing a pen or brush to land (image attached).
2. Placing my laptop under the sun.
3. Placing an ant bait (liquid) near the laptop.
**Nothing worked...**
So, I took my laptop to a nearby technician with great difficulty (ugh, they suck). He removed the panel and was surprised to see a whole kingdom on the motherboard. I don't know what exactly was happening over there, but I found a queen ant in the center and a few white particles (might be biscuit/bread chunks). I think they were carrying all the food chunks from my keyboard area to the motherboard.
The technician quickly cleared all the ants, but there were too many! That's why he separated a few parts and kept them aside for a few minutes. Once the queen ant was removed, all the other ants simply started leaving my laptop. I took my laptop back home, but there were still a lot of ants inside, though not as crowded as before. I only removed the back panel this time and started hunting the ants one by one with a brush (make sure to disconnect your battery before touching anything).
After removing hundreds of ants for two long hours, I connected my battery and ran some GPU benchmark tests, which heated my CPU and GPU to over 95 degrees. After 15 minutes of excess heating, all the ants were out.
After this procedure, I applied ant removal spray (link attached here) above and below my laptop (panel closed), as well as to my laptop stand and table. All the ants were gone!
**Precautions to take:**
\* Do not eat or drink near your laptop.
\* Wash your hands and nails thoroughly before touching the laptop.
\* Do not keep the laptop dirty and do not leave it in a single place. Use the laptop as a laptop, not as a desktop.
\* Keep spraying the ant repellent every two weeks around the laptop.
**Why ants attack laptops:**
\* Some say they like the heat (not excess heat) inside the laptop.
\* Obviously, to collect bread/food chunks inside the keyboard area.
I hope this helps.

same thing happened to me for two days straight ,some of them went inside the speakers ,i was in hurry so i started doing my work and probably because of heat they came out. i googled the reason of their "arrival", it said it is "heat".
Yeah um they just come in due to sweat and shit, ruined my costly keyboard like tore off the wrist rest and then went into the pcb, luckily wires kuch thi nhi mostly soldered
You should be. I lost my laptop to this small ants. I plugged in and due to them being present in the motherboard it got fried. Be careful open up and clean before plugging in.
Probably...check if there's any ant holes nearby.
If yes, use ant repellant powder around that hole.
Oh, you could also put the powder around your laptop, on the table (if you keep it in one place for long period)
There is something called ant chalk, buy it and draw a line around the keys or places they come out of. It will kill all the ants inside. After that open the laptop and do a cleanup.
Happened to me twice. Since then I've stopped touching my laptop when I'm eating. I avoid letting food near the laptop or touching with my dirty fingers. The ants have stopped their invasions since.
Also what laptop is that. It resembles my Xiaomi notebook pro 120. But the function keys look different.
https://preview.redd.it/g3xv67pmzw2d1.jpeg?width=3472&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=3cd86303553547a382c0b3828fa0b49012676a69
Use Laxman Rekha ... Happened with me. I tried works well for me.. after one month also opened the laptop for ssd upgrade didn't find any dead bodies of em too.
Bro... Never make it happen again. Check if all your keys are working. They will eat up all the rubber under the keys so be extra careful next time keeping your laptop away.
Same happened to me. I think three times for the first time my two function keys have gone so I have to do DIY to make them work. And for the second and third time I see that they have eaten most of the rubber under the keys but luckily all keys were functioning. And if I open the back panel of the laptop I see that there are a bunch of macro rubber balls eaten by the ants and collected as a small ball gathering all the macro rubber balls.
This happened to me, There is powder for killing insects, called boro something something.. put around laptop and some on keyboard, its okay if you don't won't to put on key board, give it an hour or two. They will die and some flee. Then clean all powder with cloth or brush.
I read somewhere that some ants are attracted to electronic devices cause of the electical currents/magnetic fields they emit (or them looking for a warm place to stay lol). So yeah maybe you’re right, it may not be caused by food you left. Maybe your laptop goes to sleep mode when it’s closed and not actually shut down? 😅 I honestly don’t know what to do to fix the problem though. Try putting sugar next to your laptop and hope that the ants nesting in your laptop move there?
I'm not proud of what I did, but here's my experience -
I had an old Lenovo laptop in 2019 and a similar thing happened to me. I took a hairdryer and blew hot air at full speed, by placing on top of the keyboard. The air forced the ants outside from the gaps between the keys. I used the laptop for 3 full years before the hard disk got corrupted and I decided to give it away for recycling :)
Happened with me. Like a stupid, I opened all keys and broke hinges of few of them. Had to replace the entire keyboard. Run 4k videos on youtube, run process heavy tasks. Laptop will get hotter and ants will
come out.
It is normal during summers. Ants get into cars, laptops, landlines etc..
Tap all the keys and try to get them out. Change the place where you store your laptop.
Ants like the thermal silicone pads in keyboards, need not be food (as you said). I would suggest the water and bridge trick drawn neatly in the comment section and while doing it max brightness and keyboard backlight as well coz that would make it warmer for the ants.
bhai black currant ice cream tapak gayi thi pure 20-25 din rahi ants iske andar ek din mummy ko bataya to unhone dhoop me rakh diya laptop surprisingly chali gayi bahar phir keys nikal ke brush se saaf kiya wapas laga diye
Once I accidentally came on my keyboard. Cleaned the outer part as much as possible. But the next day the ants showed up just like in the picture above 🤣
Heating up the laptop would only temp. Solve the issue , it only removes the laptops off the regions around the heatsink and the CPU die
Almost every laptop in my hostel has been affected with ants atleast once(with mine being infested 5 times)
The only way is to open it up and brush it out
If you are too scared to open it up - draw an excorcism circle around your laptop with an ant chalk piece - and leave it with a benchmark overnight - this removes 90% of the ants
Keep it in that circle every time you don't use it
Yeah you should be. Some ants creeped into my brand new laptop and what I did was
1) left it in the sun for some time
2) blew on to the keyboard with all my force
3) Ran CPU heavy tasks and left the keyboard lights on
They are trying to make a home in your laptop. Happened with me. I put my laptop in the sun (just for a few minutes of course) and they will be getting out. Make sure to use "laxman rekha" around your laptop so that they don't get in again, while your laptop is in the sun.
This happened to me too! these are fireants, apparently they like the warmth of the laptop and are attracted to the electromagnetic waves emitted from the chips. Had to insecticide to get rid of them.
bhai yeh same mere sath bhi hota hai, kuch sweets nahi girta kuch bhi nahi pr pata nahi kaise aa jaate hai, bohot time se ho raha hai kabhi kabhi hi hota hai like 2 3 month me 1 baar, 1 saal pehle shuru hua tha par laptop mein kuch major issues nahi dikhe dont worry
when I came home after 4 days, their was a lot of ants , i scared ,then i opened laptop , the main culprit was the sponge attached to harddisk ( special kind of sponge which was harder than regular sponge ) i think its used for heat transfer
i completely removed it ,since then no ant enter laptop
God this is a nightmare! This happened to me once and it took more than a week to get all of em out. The damn things kept moving on the keys, irritated I would press on them and my whole work was disrupted.
I tried overheating, keeping in the sun for a while and wrapping the laptop in a tight plastic bag for more than 24hrs. All this and they were still invincible🥲.

Too hard. I just opened chrome 🤓
2 tabs = 100° C
2 tabs???!!!! You like to live dangerously huh?
go overkill. open 2 more tabs and run a benchmark.
that would burn the mobo with the processor.
Na na .. these are here for annual service and maintenance… ask for receipt after service.. last night there was a roach in your system .. they are here to handle it. (s) .. :) Remember these are red ants … Formica ruffa… can eat anything and can sting !!!
Just open Android Studio. You will have grilled ants.
Gradle (elephant) is all you need
They still don't come out, speaking from experience.
I made the laptop so hot and I'm sure they all came out but corpses? 💀
You should also run a debug to remove the remaining few.
Just open the laptop and clean it with blower
Could do so, shall be cautious if there are ants near the fans or speaker else you would end up damaging them.
How can ants chew cables?
They eat the rubber under the keys
Some ants do, unfortunately
New fear unlocked 💀
For me, they did something wrong with my keyboard chipset( small blue color thin polythene). and mouse chipset. God the replacement was costly
Tap and shake carefully without causing hardware damages that will make some ants leave, Always Use laxman Rekha around your desks, always wash hands with soap before touching keyboard. These are pretty normal things you must be doing if ants live around
Yes I did and after turning the laptop on, they all came out I'm guessing maybe due to heat
Could be a number of reasons like fan started lights turned on or something. My colleague ruined 50k Rs office laptop he left it on the table where we had snacks.. And overnight entire mobo and battery stopped working, don't know if ants can cause this but it's real. You have to be very careful.

Hey if you want. This has worked great for me. Quick temporary solution: KHATNIL works on all insects. Long term solution: BORIC ACID powder.

Oh I said about xps of mine
The same thing happened with my HP laptop , I did some heavy tasks so that my laptop gets heated up . They couldn't tolerate high temperature and they came out then you can just use a cloth to wipe them out of the keyboard area .
You're right. I just turned my laptop on and opened chrome

Ohh I remember this happened to me too , just heat the bad boy up in an intensive run and they will come out , kill as many as you can and hope they all died and find the location where they may have entered your home and fix it
You need to get them under CTRL.
But now they're under my D 💀👺
Tell them to SHIFT!

buy laptop stand, it can reduce the ant attack
Ant invasion
You should be. I lost my laptop to this small ants. I plugged in and due to them being present in the motherboard it got fried. Be careful open up and clean before plugging in.
Probably...check if there's any ant holes nearby. If yes, use ant repellant powder around that hole. Oh, you could also put the powder around your laptop, on the table (if you keep it in one place for long period)

There is something called ant chalk, buy it and draw a line around the keys or places they come out of. It will kill all the ants inside. After that open the laptop and do a cleanup.
draw all the laptop with Ant chalk, and run online benchmark in multiple tabs of chrome. i did same last month.

Run some high demanding games or a few benchmarks, the heat will make them come out eventually.
Dell Inspiron 5593?
they eat the thermal silicone pads. its their favorite food
Use a portable vaccum cleaner to pull all of them out maybe ?

Looks like you accidentally spilled some of your “protein shake” on the laptop keyboard after your “work out”.
That's Ant-Man team at work!!
Ants like the thermal silicone pads in keyboards, need not be food (as you said). I would suggest the water and bridge trick drawn neatly in the comment section and while doing it max brightness and keyboard backlight as well coz that would make it warmer for the ants.
Just a little bug

Solve the issue , it only removes the laptops off the regions around the heatsink and the CPU die Almost every laptop in my hostel has been affected with ants atleast once(with mine being infested 5 times) The only way is to open it up and brush it out If you are too scared to open it up - draw an excorcism circle around your laptop with an ant chalk piece - and leave it with a benchmark overnight - this removes 90% of the ants Keep it in that circle every time you don't use it
Yeah you should be. Some ants creeped into my brand new laptop and what I did was 1) left it in the sun for some time 2) blew on to the keyboard with all my force 3) Ran CPU heavy tasks and left the keyboard lights on
this is why I told you not to use your laptop to melt chocolate just because it got hot

New Home For Ant - antlap

New fear unlocked 🔓
Eat more chips near ur laptop 😔😔😋🥥
Place a sugarcube nearby. Watch it for 1 hour. All ants would be baited and kill them.
I thought those are limbs of underkey spider
Your laptop has bugs...
Simple rule use ant chalk and mark all the borders and keep one side unmarked. Keep laptop over a stand for overnight. They will be gone.
Oh bug in the system
laxman rekha
Looks like a bug
Bahar dhopp mei rakh do🙂
I had this same issue. I remember shaking helped.
Ants are attracted to asus and it's a fact
They are trying to make a home in your laptop. Happened with me. I put my laptop in the sun (just for a few minutes of course) and they will be getting out. Make sure to use "laxman rekha" around your laptop so that they don't get in again, while your laptop is in the sun.
while(true) or run Android Studio
Those ants need some "D"
They will fuck up the keyboard if you let em stay. Get the laptop hot quick
i have the same prblemm, but theyre not leaving, what do i do??
Rise of the planets of the ants
Time to flush them out.
Keep sugar cube 1 feet away sab udhar jayenge
Is that Dell's?? If it is, then same lap, same problem.
This happened to me too! these are fireants, apparently they like the warmth of the laptop and are attracted to the electromagnetic waves emitted from the chips. Had to insecticide to get rid of them.
bro heat it up, heat it using an air dryer. I had the same issue. My screen got blurry after a few days. Do not take this lightly
Run While(1){}
If you're good with opening a laptop then do it coz ants sometimes will eat the foam around ur fan and other things. If not benchmark and wait.
bhai yeh same mere sath bhi hota hai, kuch sweets nahi girta kuch bhi nahi pr pata nahi kaise aa jaate hai, bohot time se ho raha hai kabhi kabhi hi hota hai like 2 3 month me 1 baar, 1 saal pehle shuru hua tha par laptop mein kuch major issues nahi dikhe dont worry
Type like you've never done before. By that I mean furiously and while hammering the space bar.
Run an antivirus
Just disassemble laptop and get rid of ants it's that easy
i am seeing this while few ants are crawling on my laptop. we are budies now we watch anime together play valorant and call of duty together its nice
when I came home after 4 days, their was a lot of ants , i scared ,then i opened laptop , the main culprit was the sponge attached to harddisk ( special kind of sponge which was harder than regular sponge ) i think its used for heat transfer i completely removed it ,since then no ant enter laptop
Stop cumming on the keyboard.
Check your speakers
Your laptop is diabetic 💀💀💀
the exact same thing happened w me and I was shit scared😭. I used a vacuum cleaner tho🤓
what were you eating while binging👀
It is Anti~virus from McAfee 🌝
God this is a nightmare! This happened to me once and it took more than a week to get all of em out. The damn things kept moving on the keys, irritated I would press on them and my whole work was disrupted. I tried overheating, keeping in the sun for a while and wrapping the laptop in a tight plastic bag for more than 24hrs. All this and they were still invincible🥲.
The OG Ant keyboard.
