I dunno what to tell you about those ants! The only ones we have too big of a problem with are those tiny little black sugar ants....more annoying than anything.
PS. You can put one or two jars on the places where the ants usually are. Fill the jars about half an inch with something sweet...honey, marmelade sugarwater.
In a short time the jars are full with ants. Then you will find a way to kill them.
At least that worked for me when we still lived in the country. :)
