Nautical Ant invasion

Ok, so for the second time in two years I have had an ant invasion, It looked like a scene from the old Sci Fi movie "THEM". Problem is the ants were in the storage compartment of my pontoon compartments of my 22 footer parked at the end of a fifty foot dock. I have heard of army ants but never navy ants. My wife and I recreated a scene from a medievil flick by pouring hot water on them and tossing them over board along with their eggs, making the local fish happy I hope. I have tried ant traps and stuff but the little buggers keep returning. We keep the boat clean and rarely eat on it. Anyone else have this problem and are there any other solutions other than hiring an anteater. Seriously though HELP !!!!!!
