One of those miserable critters just crawled on my arm and BIT me.
Even with Raid Ant Bait here on my desk and absolutely no food ever in
the office, I still see them periodically wandering across the screen
of my laptop.

In the library where the dry cat food is set out in containers, ants
march out in a long line to feed on the food. At least the linoleum
under the dishes smells nice now after spraying lemon-scented Lysol all
around it. Honestly, I'm really a gently person, but I thoroughly
enjoyed watching those ants being covered in yellow liquid. Stopped
them in their little tracks, it did.

I do wish my cats would acquire a taste for bugs other than spiders. I
like spiders. I hate ants.

I agree. Totally hate ants. I have found that cayenne pepper
sprinkled where ants like to come in tends to keep them out. You might
want to check and make sure your cats won't be bothered by it, though.
My dog isn't but I have no idea about cats. What a shame they eat the
spiders though, because the spiders would help control the ants. Maybe
you could get a pet anteater?
