just spray a few areas that you see them and if it kills them spray other areas and if their affected then use it until your problem is solve if it doesn't i sugest geting a bug spray made for killing ants that don't poison nething but them.

i dont know about vinegar to "kill" ants, it will drive them away from the smell. just use a mist sprayer on your counters and baseboards and entrances ( windows and doors ). to kill them use a household pesticide like home defense.
