Sounds like Carpenter Ants. They have jaws that you can see if you look at one up close. Get some liquid ant bait. They will be attracted to it and all will die before making it back home.
Carpenter Ants are destructive to wood and you should have your house checked out to see if damage has been done by them already. They do as much damage annually in our area, as termites.

the common black ant is not poisonous. just clean the spot with soap and water. you'll be fine.

No they are not poisonous. Thier bite does hurt, as I am sure you can imagine. There is no need to worry.
