Beware! Those may be termites instead of ants. Check under your kitchen sink for leaky plumbing, soggy boards, etc. If you have a crawlspace instead of a basement, check for mud tubes leading up from the ground. Also check all around the outside of the house for mud tubes stretching up from the ground to the wood parts of the house. If you're looking for a good non-toxic way to deter most insect pests from your house, try anything that contains citrus oil, such as orange oil wood polishes, etc. If they're actually in the wood of your home, then you're going to need to call an exterminator. Termites can eat as much as a pound of wood a day.
