Noticing plants not really thriving, I truned out a large pot and was horrified to find loads of ants burrowing a maze of tunnels in patches of soil. Even odder where the many small mite-like creatures - small (3-4mm long, 1-1.5mm wide),creamy white with two pincer-type head appendages. Any ideas of how to deal with the ants and what the other insects are? Thank you

Sounds like sommat from a horror film  :o :o   I think you'll have to repot in fresh compost.  Don't know what the other creepies are but someone here will no doubt be able to tell you  :)
I came, I saw, I composted
