How to get rid of ants?

I accidentally left a banana peel in the trash bin so there's a trail of ants from the hallway crevice into my room and towards my trash bin. I killed most of them by flattening them or vacuuming them, not as many are coming out since I set the blow drier to high and blasted the crevice with extreme heat, although now I'm worried that the walls must be crawling with ants which explains the presence of them in the downstairs kitchen as well. So I was wondering how I could get rid of them. I know ultrasonic ant control works, but I don't know what B&M stores sell them.
 
red or black ants? I know amdro works great for red ants in the house.

Living in FL, every summer red ants try to invade my house. I amdro them and they are dumb enought to keep eating it and dieing. They also go outside to die in little piles along the house..

Hope that helps
 
RAID SPRAY :Q

I had a problem with ants in my dorm room, pin pointed where they were coming from and sprayed that area out.. Didn't have anymore ants show up at all. 🙂

If you go this route, they sell a no scent spray, but it still smells a little.

Boric acid only works if they walk through it doesn't it? Which means you have to cover the entire perimeter of your place so they do not simpily go around it.. Maybe they can not smell it? I know it works though with the perimeter being covered

Fire, lots of fire.

fire with many chemicals to put it out, then more fire to burn away the chemicals.
 
MINT 😀 Ants DETEST MINT. Leave mint leaves near the window sill, door openings or where ever they might enter from. They really make the house smell good too 🙂
