Hardworking insect (3)

I believe the answer is:

ant

(Other definitions for ant that I've seen before include "one living in colonies" , "Social worker" , "One working hard" , "Proverbially hard-working insect" , "Small busy insect" .)

I've seen this clue in the USA Today, the Family Time and the Universal.
