The best solution I have found for ants is a product called Terro. It looks like a clear syrup. You put a drop out on a piece of paper where the ants are marching around. They find it fast, take it all in and then take it back to the nest where everone feeds and everyone dies.
It must be some slow action poison in a sugar formula. It really works.
A good friend of mine was having ants all over her kitchen (very old home). She was about to the point of poisoning herself with all the bug spray.
Got her some Terro and we knocked them all out.

Terro ROCKS. It’s the only thing that works on carpenter ants. We have used it for years.
Thank you for the information, I can’t use sprays or poisons of any kind, other than those expensive ant feeders of poison.
This place is about 50 years old and must have been built on an ant hill.
I have written the name down, and will ask for some of it.
