Know What Type Of Ants You Are Dealing With
In order to solve the problem, you’re gonna have to get rid of the ants that you’ll basically find hidden before you get rid of those that are out in the open. Sounds confusing yet? Well, it’s better that you do it this way since a queen of an ant colony will basically be the one hidden and if it’s not killed first then all your efforts to dispose of the exposed ants will just go to waste because the queen will just be laying more and more eggs.

Follow The Trail Of Ants Entering Your Home
We understand, that it’s work. But doing so will eventually lead you to the queen which can ultimately be your victory over these things if you’re successfully in destroying it.

Use Ant Bait To Poison The Queen
As you can understand by now, the trick is not to go and kill the queen directly, but to have the worker ants do it for you. A worker ant will probably take in the bait for for the queen. And when the queen eats it, it will eventually kill her eliminating the cause of re-population for these species in your area.

Be Patient On When You’re Going To Clean Out The Whole Colony
Yes, it does not happen in just a snap of a finger. You’re gonna have to wait for some weeks in order to see the effects of the bait that you sent as some colonies can have more than one queen producing eggs for them. So you need to keep giving out the bait food and only attack the nest itself once the threat has been neutralized.
