What is the best solution for killing ants? All the sprays I have bought don't seem to work?
Answers:
Borax...the laundry stuff. Terro is made from this and you can get a huge box for less than $3. Ants can't cross it. I made apaste and wiped out all of my cabinets with it and I haven't seen them in their in 8 months.
Other answers:
Diatomaceous Earth (DE).When insects come in contact with DE, their shell is worn through and death is by dehydration. There is no survival and no immunity.

Go to any feed store.
Taro.
There is this sticky gel type stuff called terro and it will do the trick in a couple of days. Just put it on little squares of cardboard that is included and put it were ants have been seen.
It is very cheap as well.

Sprays are an instant kill (kills the ants in sight now) and the ants keep coming back.... find the nest and distroy it....

They love the stuff and come running out to eat it, and bring it back to the nest to share with their queen and all their friends. Before long, everyone is dead. Also, you do not need to water it like most of the other ant killers. They eat it dry.
If you cannot afford any ant killer, I heard that if you put a shovel of ants from one hill to another, they will kill each other. Not sure how effective that is, though.
Try looking at this site. There are a number of home remedies that seem to work for others. www.thefrugalife.com

Boiling water seems to work on any kind of ant.
Borax mixed with sugar. The ants take it into the nest where they feed it to the young and the queen. it kills them. Borax can be obtained from any chemist.
