Answer 1

Instead of spaying anything, why not just keep the gingerbread house covered? Use tinfoil or those domed lids made on purpose to cover cakes and the like. Alternatively, keep it in a box.  

Answer 2

if you aren't planning on eating it then spray raid on it  

Answer 3

Would you eat anything sprayed with chemicals?

Answer 4

we had a neighbor who had a dirt farm as he called it the older man was 80 he said in his days they couldn't afford sprays so they use corn meal what you make corn bread with and spread it all over the yard keep doing it at least once a month until the ants leave or die. what happens the eat the corn meal and then drink water  and take it back to the others and they exploded as the saying goes. i didn't believe it until i tried it we had a half  acre and it work  

Answer 5
