I live in a mobile home that seems to be located on a large ant hill in California. The ants swarm inside when it rains too much. Recently they moved inside and I kept spraying with a mixture of lavender oil and water. It appeared to kill the ants and disorient them. Today I found more ants in the LR and they were feasting on >10 termites.
If you spray for ants, then the ants will die. If you see 1 ant somewhere, that means that there are many more ants around.
Ants use smell to identify sweets even if they are kept in tins if there is any residue of the food on the outside of the container. When ants find food they send signals to other ants and they will come to the food source.
