IF you know how they are getting in, and I know this sounds crazy but use chalk. I had a problem with them getting in our front door. My dad said "draw a line of chalk, for some reason ants won't cross it". I said sure. But Dad is usually right, so I found some old sidewalk chalk and drew a thick line on my porch right in front of my door. They stopped!
I've also used fresh mint leaves, sometimes works, sometimes doesn't. We have a dog that licks everything so I can't use anything toxic.
Good Luck.
