Had the same problem with black ants. What did I do? Remove the HDD and start shaking the laptop vigorously til they decide to run out and then CyberClean all of them.

You'll fry everything unless you dry up every single component.

^ never know until you try?
Works for me, whenever I blow, some "curious" ones will come out and I kill them  laugh.gif
Oh ya, one more thing, try not to leave your laptop at your desk during the night. Keep it properly and put it away to prevent more ants from entering the chassis  nod.gif

Still, the most effective way is to open up the laptop and check, its going to be a problem if they built a nest there
*
ya, i agree with u...quite worry if those ants build up a nest inside...but i have no experience opening a laptop, sked spoil the laptop only...maybe worth a try with the blowing..

i duno if the ants attracted to the electro magnetic wave or the heat but what i know is whenever i have an unused device such as old hanphone or a dead laptop.. there will be these ants.. once i found they build a ant nest in my old nokia 6600..
*
as i know, those small red ants attracted to the battery liquid...cause i got whole bunch of energizer left unuse in drawer...after a few months..the alkaline liquid flow out...and there are tons of small red ants there...

i like the torch light idea, but it may take sometimes to kill them 1 by 1. once u are certain that the ants nest isnt inside ur lappy, try this ants killer:

A laptop isn't as simple in construction as a phone. Even if you did dry everything, there's no guarantee that everything can work properly at 100% again. sweat.gif

Burn them.  Burn them all.

Seriously, just open up your notebook and clean it. Get a can of compressed air or a USB powered vacuum cleaner and blow/suck at every vent you can.
