🐜 What Are Pheromones?
Pheromones are chemical signals insects use to communicate with each other, affecting behaviors like mating, foraging, and alarm.
📡 Types of Pheromones
- Sex pheromones: Attract mates.
- Alarm pheromones: Warn of danger.
- Trail pheromones: Mark paths to food sources.
⚗️ Chemical Nature
Pheromones are often volatile organic compounds—small molecules that can easily evaporate and spread through the air.
