Ants, one of the pests often found in homes, are smart pests. They have a pretty sophisticated way of communicating with each other.
Communication between ants is done by releasing chemical fluids known as Pheromones. The released pheromones form a specific scent trail to leave messages for other members of their colony up to 20 different types of action messages.
Ants are insects that live in groups. Ant swarms do their work by being connected to each other and always walking in a series of lines with traces of pheromones produced.
Ants release pheromones that help other ants find food and water sources. Although these pheromones are unique to each colony, ants can often recognize each other's pheromones.
In addition to finding food sources, these pheromone trails serve different purposes such as communicating potential danger when under threat, incubating a nest, or protecting a colony.
