From Hulda Clark :

Ant Repellent
"Spray 50% white distilled vinegar on counter tops, window sills, and shelves and wipe, leaving residue. Start early in spring before they arrive, because it takes a few weeks to rid yourself of them once they are established. If you want immediate action, get some lemons, cut the yellow outer peel off and cover with grain alcohol in a tightly closed jar. Let stand at least one hour. Use one part of this concentrate with 9 parts water in a spray bottle. Mix only as much as you will use because the diluted form loses potency. Spray walls, floors, carpets wherever you see them. The lemon solution even leaves a shine on your counters. Use both vinegar and lemon approaches to rid yourself of ants.

To treat the whole house, pour vinegar all around your foundation close to the wall, using one gallon for every five feet. Expect to damage any foilage it touches. Reapply every six months."

From "Clean House, Clean Planet"

The author says to find where the ants are coming into the house from, and make a trail of sweet foods far away from the house. Use a large can that has some sort of a top so other larger animals cannot get into it, but the ants will be able to. Fill can with leftover foods (sweets for sweet ants, etc.) I don't have the book with me so this is what I remember. I'd do an internet search on natural termite repellents until you find something.

Good luck diverting those buggers!
