If they are in the walls of your house the nest has to be found and the queen eliminated. This is difficult to do and an exterminator is your best bet. Carpenter ants are very destructive and can do as much if not more damage than termites.You can go to the Cornell Cooperative on line and find out more info.

There are not any preventative products on the market that a homeowner can buy that are effective.As far as things you can do,Eliminate conducive conditions,Make sure there is no wood-soil contact,trees touching the home,moisture conditions in the home or against it,rotten wood is replaced and sealed,mulch is not piled against the house, and firewood is stored away from the home.The only products that will work are done by a professional,do not take shortcuts in protecting your home.Call a Pest Control Professional and have a proper treatment performed.The best products are baits.Sprays just scatter the ants and will result in a larger infestation
