Well it's like dealing with any other insect.. cockroaches, plenty of 
ways to kill roaches but if you don't clean up the area that is 
attracting them or giving them an area to harborage they will always be 
there...ants, anything will kill an ant but if the nest is not treated 
or what is attracting them is not addressed they will continue to show up.
