These are the methods I have used in the past - it seems that it depends on the type of ants which works best, at least in my experience. One of these has always worked.

Cream of Wheat: Place a dish of Cream of Wheat (dry) where the ants can access it. What happens they eat it, the cereal expands and the ants will explode.

Sprinkle Comet or Ajax powder around the area the ants are invading. Also where the ants are coming up into the house and sprinkle it there.

Use red chili powder to make a paste using a little water and paste the area where the ants are coming in
