As mentioned in another post, if they are true "carpenter" ants they will only be found in wet areas. You need to see where you have something leaking. The good part is if they are carpenter ants they have indicated to you that you have wet wood somewhere and if you repair it they will go away. I bought a house many years ago and when remodeling I opened up a wall to find carpenter ant damage. You could see the staining from the water on the studs but apparently the leak was repaired and there was no sign of the ants.
