Hmm.. I heard turmeric powder works as well but you can try clenaing the bench tops and cupboards down really well and then wipe down with a clean damp cloth that has a few drops of essential peppermint oil on it. Or you can use ant traps or Raid, or Pour cinnamon across their trail. They can't cross it.
Hope that helps
I really don't know but my aunt use to get them in her kitchen a lot before but she used those things and she hardly see them now.

You could buy Ant repellent in Hardware stores, they look like chalks
