How does Bonide Eight Insect Control Vegetable, Fruit and Flower kill ants? Is this my contact or through ingestion?

My daughter bought a house....there were a lot of ants around her storage shed. I bought this product from a local lawn center. It really worked....just wondering ....exactly how does it kill the ants....fumes or ingestion? Many thanks.

The active ingredient in Bonide Eight Insect Control Vegetable, Fruit and Flower is Permethrin, which can kill a broad range of pests that come into contact with it, such as ants, fleas, ticks, cockroaches, flies, and mosquitoes. Permethrin is an insecticide that work by overexciting the nervous system of insects, eventually causing the insect to die.
