Small black bugs around windowsill, what are they?! #286259

Today I noticed about 30 or so tiny black bugs coming into the kitchen through our windowsill, which had been cracked. Any idea what these peaks are? I sprayed 409 on them which killed them but I have a feeling more are just going to come... Any one know what these are?

I am not able to tell what they are. If you want an I.D. i would send them to the Diagnostic Lab. There is a $15 fee. Your local office will probably mail them for you. Here is the link: http://plantclinic.missouri.edu/
Many insects are drawn to light so caulking any openings and pulling drapes at night would probably help.
