Pam kills ants on dog and cat food. I spray the food and bowl, and it kills the ants immediately. They are usually black kitchen ants. It will not kill other ants. It won't poison the dog or cat if they eat the Pam on their food.
I also use Pam in the kitchen to kill ants.

Great tip. Thanks for sharing.
My only concern is that there is a propellant in cooking sprays that leaves a sticky residue and sometimes just the adverse happens, they are drawn to the spray. Roaches love the stuff.
I make sure I wipe up the oil around the sink once they are dead, and that is about 5 seconds. I don't like seeing t he dead ants all around. It has no residual action, but I don't see them as much the more I spray and I usually use it on the sink area. I did spray the food, and they didn't return.
If it kills aunts that quickly I'd think twice about using it on my food constantly. It might not kill us instantly but used for a long period of time who knows. It might cause cancer. Same thing with coffeemate. Ever notice how the bugs avoid it? Not good.
I would never let my animals eat food that ants crawled all over!
I had tried every home remedy to get rid of ants. The PAM was on the counter. I said Why not. The ants were like if someone was shot in the back. It has been a week, 0 ants.
