thanks bamboo, the shrub is a deutzia it has a honey scent so could that cause the ants to go on it

Not something I've observed in the past - is there no sign of aphid infestation or scale?

I agree with Bamboo, check the new leaf growth cos thats where I usually find aphid infestations at this time of year!

Ants on plants usually means they're infested with aphids - treat the aphids and the ants disappear, they're just collecting the honeydew from the aphids.
