Ant behavior: will stray ants find and be accepted into new colonies?

My father occasionally has an ant problem at his house. His kitchen countertops are dark and the ants are hard to see. On more than one occasion I have brought one home with me on my keychain.
My question is, to those who know about ant behavior, are these lone ants a threat for future invasion in my home 3 miles away from their home colony at my Dads? Will they seek out and be accepted into a nearby colony?
