Plague of flying ants

For about the past 3 weeks we have been getting literally hundreds of flying (and biting) ants in our pool. As fast as we scoop them out more commit suicide.

Every so often, they fly out from under our patio, lots of them, it is like some horror movie.  You need to find the holes and put ant powder down there before they come out.  Also when they do, you can see where they are coming and put down boiling water.  Horrible aren't they?
