have you tried REALLY soaking the pots with water? Ants like drier soil, and pots dry out quickly, so they're a common target.
I've got millions of them in my lawn and moved a strawberry plant from near the lawn into a big planter, and some ants hitched a lift, but ultimately they didn't find the big damp planter to their liking, heh, and moved out and back into the lawn.
ANTS….Fucking everywhere. All my pots have become ant homes and now they’ve infiltrated my greenhouse pots. I’m not a fan of poisoning stuff in general but I’m definitely losing the battle.
