Ants are also repelled by powdered glass spread across an area. The micro shards cut through the chitin that let's in bacteria. There is also BT. It's a bacteria that is harmful to most insects. You can buy it in traps. The trap contains food laced with bacteria. When the scout ants and workers bring some to the colony, all ants die. Cheap and effective...
