No. Ants do not like cinnamon. If you have ants in your house, try to find the main source of them and put cinnamon sticks around it. (and in places they may exit through) If they attempt again, put a natural repel around. Also, make sure not to leave trash or sweet stuff around. Hope this helps! :)

Will dawn and water mix kill fire ants?

I'm sure any of the myths out there regarding killing fireants will work; temporarily. But fireants are highly evolved and intelligent. You must kill them on contact and you must kill the queen. Using baits will not work because once the ants mark a food source as poison, the entire colony is notified and everyone begins removing the food from the colony. There is a product I've used that works better than anything. Texas A&M University tested the product as well with great success. The product is called Exxant. It's not a poison and is all natural. Which is why I like it. I normally have to treat twice but this product kills the queen and all the ants. I know it's killing them because they all come out of the mound and die within minutes. The bottle says to give it 5 days but it seems to work faster than that. You can find them at www.fireantfighter.com. Or you can keep trying Dawn.

Why do ants touch when passing by each other?

Do ants have names?

If you mean does one ant in a nest answer to the name of "Joe" of "Bill", or anything like that, no. There is no reason to think that ants tell each other apart, except that they can tell say queens from other ants, and big castes of ants from little and so on. They also can tell other kinds of ants from their own kind (and often they will fight them).

However, humans have names for the different kinds of ants. For instance, one of the species (kinds) of leafcutter ants we call Atta texana, the Texas leafcutter ant, and another we call Atta sexdens, or, if you like, the six-toothed leafcutter ant. Again, one of the species of fire ant is Solenopsis invicta, the imported red fire ant, and another is Solenopsis molesta, the thief ant. We call names like Solenopsis sylvestrii " (the forest fire ant) scientific names" or "biological names" and names like "red fire ant" or "forest fire ant" the "common names". A name like "Solenopsis" which is like a surname for several species we call the genus or generic name. A name like "sylvestrii" tells which species it is in the genus, and we call that the "specific epithet". The two together make up the specific or species name.

Just as we may get lots of species in agenus, so we may get lots of genera in a family. So, for example, all the Solenopsis and all the Atta and all the Formica are genera in the family of Formicidae, the family of all the kinds of ants. And the Formicidae are just one family in the order Hymenoptera, the ants plus bees plus wasps. And the Hymenoptera are just one order in the class Insecta, all the insects.
