1. Close off the entry points:
Locate and seal any gaps around windows, doors, and other potential entry points to prevent more ants from entering.
2. Remove food sources:
Clean up any food spills, store food in airtight containers, and ensure your garbage bins are sealed.
3. Use a vacuum cleaner:
Immediately vacuum up any flying ants you see, making sure to dispose of the bag or canister contents outside your home.
Long-Term Solutions

Use an appropriate insecticide spray around entry points and nesting areas. Be sure to follow the instructions carefully.
3. Seek professional help:
If the infestation is severe, contact a pest control professional to assess and treat the situation effectively.
