First post about ants.

Just kidding. Clean up the food off the kitchen floor.

Raid makes an indoor ant spray that actually smells good and works great. I had this problem in my old house. Not in the kitchen though, in the bathroom during a drought. I just sprayed along the base boards. Killed em dead.

Stop pissing on your floor. That'll get rid of the piss ants.

If you're talking about the tiny little black ones or "Sugar Ants" buy this

Terro Ant Baits

ETA: Home Depot and Lowes has them

They make a poison that you put around the foundation of your house. I can't recall the name but I think it's made by Ortho. It won't kill what's already there but it will keep anymore from getting in.

+1 on Terro I've used the liquid ant killer and have been very happy with the results. I've only had to use a drop or two and the ants were no where to be seen the next day.
