A nest in the garden is doing no harm. The trail across your worktop is the problem, and a cloth often ends it.

No. It scatters the foraging route and makes baiting harder.
No. A mating flight lasts a few days in July or August and stops on its own.
Small pale ants with multiple queens that nest inside buildings, more common in flats with continuous warmth. Spraying makes them split and spread.
Wipe the trail with hot soapy water, seal food, clear crumbs, move the pet bowl, and empty the bin nightly. Then wait a week.
