Would it seriously be easier to just toss all the dishes in the trash and buy yourself a new small & manageable set? I know how it feels to be overwhelmed like this and sometimes you just have to take the simplest route. For example, how many mugs do you really need? If you have only 2, then that’s only 2 to keep up with. Same for each category of item, including clothes. Paper plates, cups and plastic utensils are good right now bc you just throw them away! These ant traps work great. In short order you can be rid of them. I used them last year which was the year of the ants around here. Place them around where it seems they might be entering and leaving: https://a.co/d/04INJKHd Lastly, check out this book: https://a.co/d/00oCUTs7

There is this ant poison stuff that you can get that the ants will take back to their colony. Its like a biological nuke and would hopefully kill the whole colony. edit: This stuff, its small enough, you can put it up somewhere, tape it somewhere.
