Make sure that it is a garden ant powder--the household kind is often boric acid, which can be toxic for plants. I would use diatomaceous earth, even though it is slow acting.

Try ant powder in a puffer bottle. You don't want to spray anything relly. Wash tomatoes well before eating. Check also, for aphids, as ants 'milk' them for honeydew.
