Make your own bait! It gets carried back to the nest and kills the queen. Soak a cotton ball in the following solution and place in the middle of the "line" near wear they come in.
Ant Bait
1 1/2 Cups warm water
1 1/2 TBSP Borax
mix well
add 1/2 Cup sugar
mix well
Store in airtight container
You need to keep this out of the reach of children & pets as it is toxic. If you need, you can put the cotton ball in a small plastic container with a few ant sized holes drilled in the bottom sides.

I have used Terro in the past
This spray was on DIY a few weeks ago: 2 C water, 2 C white vinegar, 3 Tbs salt, 3 T Dawn.
Ants are coming in from outside because they are searching for food and water. Keep everything spotless!
Grits. Pour heavily. Smothers them.
