Fruits and Nuts: Fig Tree Problem?, 1 by Tplant

This is a Honey fig that seems to be having ant problems and some yellowing of leaves. I gave it some liquid fertilizer and hope it helps but meanwhile I have ants running around on the tree. What should I use as a control being that this is edible fruit? I use Ortho Bug-be Gone on my tomatos. Think it should be OK for my figs?? Or do you know something better?
Forgot to say that I picked off the yellowing leaves. You can see them on the ground.
