Argentine ants (Linepithema humile) were once native to South America. But people have unintentionally introduced the ants to all continents except Antarctica.

Most ants are completely harmless. They don't carry diseases, they aren't dirty, and they don't get into your food unless you leave it out. They clean up your crumbs and they get food in return, it's a win-win.
There are notable exceptions, however. Obviously, anybody should draw the line at property damage - if you have carpenter ants, be my guest.. call an exterminator. If you're a filthy pig and have ants in your house, clean your shit up and they will go away.
The idea of spraying toxic chemicals all round inside your house because of some opportunistic ants is insane.

As an avid PETA member, I hope you all suffer the same fate as you are doing to those innocent living creatures.
Instead of killing them, why don't you transport them outside? What is the harm in that?
