Ants communicate in their colonies primarily through the use of pheromones, which are chemical signals that they release to convey information to other ants. These pheromones can indicate food sources, alert to danger, mark trails, or even signal alarm or distress. Additionally, ants can also use tactile communication, such as touching antennae, and auditory signals like stridulation (producing sound by rubbing body parts together).
