Sorry this answer was not as fast as the last! I normally answer questions in the morning and then at night.
Larger ants are usually Carpenter Ants, and it is very normal to find Carpenter Ant queens in large numbers. Yes, the queens have wings, as do the kings, although the kings are usually smaller. Here is a link to our carpenter ant page with pictures of carpenter ants.
As far as the most common ant in Florida? There are many, but believe it or not, the Florida Carpenter Ant is probably the most famous. These ants infest wood, bore out galleries to live in it, and can do considerable damage.
If you saw winged Florida Carpenter Ant queens inside your home, regardless of what was sprayed outdoors, there is probably a nest somewhere inside of the walls of your home.
