    Thank you for the suggestions. I use the half and half vinegar and water trick too, but I add peppermint essential oil to it. The ants hate it, and my kitchen smells nice! To get rid of ant hills, get hand dishwashing liquid and add it to hot water. Pour it directly onto the anthill. This mixture absorbs into their exoskeletons, and dries them up on the inside. You will need to do this several times It actually works on any insects.

    You can prevent tiny ants from climbing up tables, chairs, beds, etc. by rubbing a generous amount of everyday, non-toxic, blackboard chalk around the end of the furniture’s legs. From where the legs meet the floor all the way around, at least 3 inches up, thick coat of chalk. These little ants can’t climb up chalked surfaces, as they lose their grip and fall; which is kind of remarkable when you consider that ants, especially the tiny ones, can pretty much climb up anything

      Not being funny. But do you just get chalk and grind it up? These little creatures are hanging out out around our bed. A couple have even crawled in the bed. We out down Borax across door thresholds which is something I saw my Grandmother do. I'm at the point I'll try many of the recommendations here.

    Yes, I was getting HUNDREDS of ants invading my kitchen. The instant solution that made them freeze in their tracks and DIE INSTANTLY was white vinegar (really cheap) in a re-used hand pump bottle that was previously used for spray bleach. I couldn't believe how fast this worked. I found it also works very well on flies, gnats and other bugs. And the best part is that its completely non-toxic, so its completely safe to use around food preparation areas. So, after the little buggers DIE, you just use a brush and dust pan to sweep them up and dump them into the toilet for the final "magic flume ride".

    Ants are not the enemy, they are harmless insects just looking for food. Make sure you keep your surfaces clean and wipe everything down with white vinegar, it works like a charm.

    Any white substance will work, corn starch, baby powder, flour etc. Just leave a trace amount where they're coming in but in fact they won't cross the white substance. It's what we've always used.
