You need to be careful. Permetherin is a very common insecticide, and it is commonly used indoors becasue it is generally very safe. BUT, its only real downside is that it is toxic to cats. So that means you can't use permethrin.

I had ants everywhere about two years ago,I just used those little flower-shaped ant-traps; worked great.
Just put them near corners/cracks/vents , or wherever they seem to be coming from (:

See if you can follow their trail outside back to their nest, then boil a pot of water and pour it over the mound. Do this a couple of times, saturate the fuckers. If you can't find the mound, wipe their trail up with windex or 409 or something. You will have to do this for several days, but eventually you will disrupt them often enough that they don't consistently bring food back to the nest, and they will leave.

You guys are idiots, seriously boiling? fire?
OP probably has pharaoh ants, so the only thing that'll work are ant traps or call an exterminator.

Outdoor traps if your pets don't go outside.
Pretty much wipe their trail clean, especially at the entrance and clean up traces of food

I, for one, welcome our new insect overlords. I'd like to remind them that as a trusted TV personality, I can be helpful in rounding up others to toil in their underground sugar caves."

because poison is poison. You can get covered ant poison 'hotels' Or cover it yourself. The ants love the stuff, eat it and then the whole colony dies. Its effective
