Locate the sorce & destroy the nest.
Be careful with anything toxic. Some times TALC is just as good as is suffocates them. Make sure work surfaces are clean & no debrs from food is arroud all tins packed are air tight. If you must use a insectacide...try Dethlac or ProControl (Green Lid).

Neat white distilled vinegar will do it also.

Talcum powder around all the sills and doors. They HATE it and will keep away.
