As you observed, they're coming through an opening in your house.  Most
insects can be diverted (or discouraged) from entering if you take some
time and seal up all the openings in the backs of your cupboards, at
the bases of your walls, backs of counters, etc. with a caulking 
compound.  This way they don't have easy access to your kitchen.
