When our anthills seem to be getting larger and more intrusive near the house, I've just sprinkled 20 Mule Team Borax on the hills; it seems to discourage them from that location for quite a while. I've not tried diatomaceous earth, but it sounds like good stuff.
I've used this, it is quite effective. I've had it kill lawn grass though.
I've used the Terro liquid on little ants. I've put drops out that dry up and they get a little bit. It takes a while this way.
Best luck I've had was accidentally; left the cap up on the bottle and about 500 found their way in and couldn't get back out. The effect was immediate. No more ants.
