Tiny six-legged crawler (3)

I believe the answer is:

ant

(Other definitions for ant that I've seen before include "` `Go to the ... thou sluggard' '" , "A soldier, for one" , "One more provident than Grasshopper" , "Proverbially hard-working insect" , "Social worker" .)

I've seen this clue in the LA Times.
