When you take antibiotics, do you feel pain for the bacteria that you kill? It's okay if you do, but it's also not an STS action to rid yourself of an infection. Fact is, it depends on your intent.
The wisdom within you should be asking yourself a few questions: can I rid the ants without killing them? are they causing harm? If you can rid them without killing them, do so. If they are causing harm, remove them. Only if you've asked these two questions (and related questions) can you begin to determine if an action you are about to perform is STS.
The fact remains that ants are beneficial in some environments, and can be detrimental in others. Bacteria can be beneficial in some environments, and detrimental in others. If the situation is causing disharmony or lessening of health of an area, then the health should be improved.
Spiritually, ask yourself what you are to be learning from this? Is this a catalyst for my development? Can I apply what I learn from this experience into a measure of service?
