Two clues to mention. First a very good one (LOI):
Single insect left when not required (5)

Then a very odd one:
More expensive pair leaving less frosty (5)
Surely not "less" unless I'm missing something?

Sorry, I can't work out which clue you are referring to.. 1 is 9 letters.

Sorry. I meant the first one you refer to as good.
It’s 18 Down
Single insect left when not needed

Your letters are correct. Take a common crossword insect out of a word for "unneeded".

Thanks. It is clever. Kept trying to put the ant in somewhere!

Yes I had the very same problem with the second one

Like the other respondent I agree. I wonder what the compiler meant to use instead of "less" or was it possibly a typesetter mistake instead?
