The easiest method is to set your flower pots on stones that you place in clear water saucers. The water saucers are designed to catch excess water but you can use them for pest control by keeping a half-inch of water in the saucers. The ants won't be able to get to the pots and by setting the pots on stones, you'll keep them from sitting in water. It works for me!
