Ants, I believe everyone is familiar with them. Then who can really understand ants? Why don't ants get lost?

With this question, I consulted some books. According to the book, ants leave some smells along the way after starting from the nest to their destination, and then return to the nest. Touch each other with tentacles and notify other ants. Scientists have done an experiment on this problem. Scientists first identify an ant and vigorously clean up the place where he reaches his destination along the way. When the ant came back, it suddenly stopped at the place where the smell was wiped off. Looking for something while walking in circles. People come to the conclusion that ants can tell their directions by their sense of smell.

In order to confirm this conclusion, I did an experiment. I first prepared a twig about 10 cm, and put the bait-small candy on one end of the twig. I put this device near an ant nest. After a while, an ant came out to explore the road. After I led him to the stick, he went to the place where the sugar was put, as if he were smelling it. I took this opportunity to cut off the broken part of the stick by one centimeter. When the ant came back, it turned left and right where it was cut off, but it couldn't find its way home.

After a while, I repeated the above experiment, and the ants still didn't find their way home.

Through these two experiments, I finally know the secret of ants not getting lost. It turns out that ants can tell the direction by smell.

Knowing the secret of ants, I was thinking: Can you make an ant alarm? When an ant approaches the alarm, the alarm can "smell" the ant and then chirp to let us know that the ant has gone to the cupboard or other places.
