Remedies against Ants

We have a problem with ants in the greenhouse. They have established nests both in pots (on benches as well as hanging), and in stacks of plastic trays.

I have to treat at least 1000 sqft, so I can't work on each plant separately. What are the recommended treatment(s)?

Does anyone know whether Spectracide BUG STOP (Home Barrier) is safe to use around orchids?
