RE: [Aroid-l] Ants

sarracenia purpurea would be a good one to try, make sure to keep it in its pot though.  a few species of drosera might do well too.  cover them from frost in teh winter.  if all else fails, repot!  or, add worms to the pots that have ant nests.  not sure if it will do anything, might destroy the nests.
