Nope. Not winter, spring, summer or autumn. It's ant season. I know, ants are available anywhere, any time, 12 months in a year. I mean the ant in my house, now they come out in large numbers. Usually, only one or two or a few can be seen. Now, I can see them in groups; I can found them in a kitchen, living room, bedroom, even in bathroom, places where usually I don't see them, now there are. My picture seems to make mylot error, maybe the resolution isn't right. I'll try upload a new one later.
It reminds me of a storybook I ever read; the ants are collecting food for winter. That makes me wonder if the raining season or monsoon is almost upon us 
Stay safe, take care.

I know what you mean! I put Combat Ant baits. Usually they disappear after it. But this time, not so.

big red biting ants, black, fast running ants, and the small red ants that come and devour leftovers. those ants are really pests for us, and my sister would put ant killer powder in the corners of where they come out,

@Adie04 looks like any ordinary ant-killer powder; nothing special

@ridingbet thanks for the tips 
I would find one online later. I don't think can find it in store here.

The ants here are still coming to our kitchen once in a while but only in small groups now. In the backyard the black ants are dominating the territory. When we harvested the banana yesterday, the tree had so many ants that I think there was a nest because of the many white eggs I saw in the nook of the stem (leaves).

@Adie04 from the way you described the black ants, it looks like they are planning a protest march. Waheehee.

In my previous home there were lots of insect comeout during summer and monsoon. Ants are in group and busy to take away sweet food but not now.

@Adie04 The Most amazing thing is that once they know a sweet thing around it, they come in large number as how they communicate.

Here, they don't care. 'We are ants and we invade your house!' I'm sure that's what probably the ants are saying.

If they're around in my room that means it might rain in a matter of days.

We spray for them when they appear. I do not like ants.

I found a good pet-safe spray to use against pests, seems to be working so far. I spray it under the front and back doors and any windows they could get through. Haven't had any ants inside since I started using it. Have my fingers crossed! We do have a lot of ants around here. Their holes are everywhere.
Ouch

I hope you can get rid of them. I've used ground cloves for them. I know salt also works.
