Magnets attract magnetic materials such as iron.

Magnets either attract or repel other magnets depending on the polarity.

Magnets repel diamagnetic materials.

Most diamagnetic materials (bismuth, diamond, graphite, silver) are only weakly repelled. Super conductors are strongly diamagnetic, and are more strongly repelled.

With the exception of superconductors, anything without a sufficiently strong enough magnetic field a magnet will not react to it.
