Only one reason.
Blatant disregard for others.

Try dry grits on the mounds in dry weather. Kills the ants and wont harm
anything else.

Ants carry the dry grits into the mound. Moisture causes the grits too
swell. It kills them.
Waste of a good grit!

I had a springtime invasion long ago - three kids who made their own
snacks, imperfect housekeeping.
I got a bottle of Terro - first time I had tried it. The ants were
really awful - like the army ants in a movie
I saw once - marching across my kitchen toward the sandwich-making
counter. When I put down some
Terro, near where they were coming in, it was like the general blew a
whistle and sounded retreat. It was
only a few minutes before they all started moving the other way. Pretty
amazing. Interesting critters :o)

Years ago, I had good results with liquid ant bait from www.gardensalive.com
but this year, there are much smaller ants. And less interested in the blue
liquid. Not sure what to do.
