Killing the ants that fill the house

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner says: Ants are filling his house, on the bedding and on the beds. Is it permissible for him to kill them and get rid of them?

Answer:
If they are harming him. If they are harming him and disturbing him, and they cannot be driven away except by killing them, then he kills them; he kills them. But if they can be driven away by other means, it is not permissible for him to kill them. Yes.
