Ants have been known to come into houses because they either sense garbage or something else that can be eaten that is left on the floor. Sometimes, water on the floor near the wall sides have been known to attract ants as well.

== == Ants travel in a straight line all the time, not even for rain, so that they don't get lost. Answer: Ants leave a trail of pheromones or scent as they travel. When they find food they return to the nest and communicate this fact to other ants who follow the scent trail to the food. As more ants travel the trail the scent gets stronger (easier to follow) and the random bumps are smoothed out making the trail straighter.
