Ants in my fabric pot

I have a plant almost three weeks in veg and I noticed an ant colony in my pot. What should I do? I have no problem with taking a cutting and dumping the dirt and starting fresh. Is that the best thing to do?
 
If you have ants... more than likely you also have aphids. Get some beneficial nematodes. The ants eat the sweet due created by the anphids.
 
Really?? You just sprinkled ground cinnamon in your soil? That’s a great thing to know, not only for plants but in general. Hard to stop those fuckers
 
I sprinkled the inside edges between the pot and the dirt, put a fine layer over the top soil and rubbed some over the outside of the fabric pot. Plant shows no signs of stress but I still see an ant here and there. I'll keep a close eye the next couple days as it is my weekend so I kind of lucked out with the timing. If any problems occur, I will update this thread!
