    Um, I don't know if you believe in Climate Change. But, I do and I think that we may be a helping a little bit BUT we are kinda overriding that help with all the gas and fuel that we are using. Causing pollution and over time Climate Change. Although once again this answer will only be of help if you believe in Climate Change.

    No single animal is solely essential for the working of the entire ecosystem, anything including ants and humans can be removed without collapse of the whole system although it will change and adapt.

    Yes little one.

    However this planet is the home of humans and humans have not yet learned to colonize other planets.

    Until we can make that work, we must obey the law so that humanity can survive. Ants are great but we need to control humans before we start worrying about insects.

    Ants do have a valued place in our biosphere, as for essential, if they were to vanish, the biosphere would slowly adapt to accommodate.

    If you look at the damage humans have caused to nature and the environment, it is clear the world would be better off without humans. What nature has provided, man is slowly destroying.

    IE: Natures air scrubbers in the form of rain forest that cleans the air we breath and provides oxigen, man is Solely responsible for destroying 2/3 of.

    I love how organized ants are, but unfortunately I have an infestation of them in my kitchen right now! UGH! Sooooo...I hate that I have to kill them but they are taking over GULP, lol!

    We can learn to be more industrious...

    Proverbs 6:6

    Go to the ant, you lazy one;

    Observe its ways and become wise.

    Originally, they were suppose to be in benevolent charge of God's creation. Then sin and rebellion from the devil entered the heart of Eve then Adam. It has been down hill every since.

    Yes. Ants have their function. They have a job to do. They are more organized than human beings.
