Ants in my laptop - II

The extermination

I got suggestions ranging from "Put your laptop in a refrigerator" to "Put your laptop in the microwave" :). I chose to use the laxman rekha approach.

So, last night, I put my laptop on a cardboard box and encircled it using the killer chalk. The result is shown in Figure 2 ;)

Ants in my laptop :(

There are heaps of tiny red ants crawling out of my keyboard and USB ports from time to time! I have eliminated around 40 today. I wonder how many are still inside! What do I do!!!
