Since your snakes are out and clear from the cages, i see no potential harm in spraying with somehing like ortho indoor and perimiter ant and bug killer. I wouldn't spray it directly on the cages, just spray it around where the ants are coming in from. then go around the entire exterior perimeter of your home and spray it. this will be a good time to change your substrate - get rid of it all before you spray, give it a few days to outgas, clean out your tanks very well, then put fresh substrate in and let the snakes come back home.
