Default Just how strong are common house ants?

Gettin' scared here. I had a wee problem with ants infesting kitchen-
I'm a slob, and house is far from tight. So, along with cleaning up
the counters and crumbs on floor, a day or so ago I put out 4 of the
typical cheap bait stations. Got home from work today, and 3 had been
moved a little, but the 4th was outright GONE. I looked all over for
it- under appliances, etc.

Is this typical? Or do I have some uber-ants hiding in the walls?

Ummmm, maybe you've got bigger vermin than ants....seen any mouse
droppings around? Might want to try a mouse trap, baited with peanut
butter.
