Why do ants easily squished in your fingers while lizards don't?
Because ants are far smaller than lizards.
Ants being smaller is part of the reason. Another part is that ants are what we call arthropods, animals like insects, spiders, crabs and so on. Arthropods have their hard and tough parts in thin layers as a sort of tough skeleton on the outside. We call that the exoskeleton, meaning "outside skeleton". Their soft innards are inside the exoskeleton, fastened to special anchors. Lizards are vertebrates; they have their hard parts (their teeth and bones) on the inside, with only the soft, tough skin on the outside. Bones being mostly hard and large, they don't squash easily.
Small arthropods don't need thick exoskeletons, but a small, thin exoskeleton is easy to squash, while a big, thick, bony skull or leg is hard to squash.
Big arthropods like some beetles and lobsters may be quite hard to squash.
But don't squash any animal or plant that you don't have a good reason to squash; they are far more beautiful and far more interesting while they are alive.

If you eat talcum powder can it kill you or what can it do to your body?
Talcum powder has been linked to cause cervical cancer in women. It's generally not a good idea to take it internally, though any effects related to its ingestion would depend on a variety of different factors. All in all, it's not good for you.
I have been eating powder since the age of 3 years old I am now 33 years old. My brother was the person who introduced it to me and I have been hooked ever since. I also will eat black board chalk if I can not get my hands on the Johnsons baby powder. The baby powder in England tates so much better than the American one, but they are both very addictive. I can eat 4oz a day. Going to the supermarket and Drugstore is a challenge because each time I go I say to my self that I am not going to eat it any more then I end up picking up a bottle. I can only eat the original plain baby powder. I have started taking laxatives to break down the bulk of powder in my body. I know I am doing harm to myself but I feel like a smoker who also knows the same thing. I have tried to quit many times the only time I was successful was when I was pregnant with my second child, but even then towards the last month of my pregnancy I gave into the craving. When I use powder on my kids I use the pure cornstarch baby powder on them because I can not eat that it makes me feel sick. I would like to know what my organs look like in side and what effects or damage the powder has done. I have seen my little boy lick powder of his body and I worry that he had inherrited this habbit from me.
Fire ants are not chordates, because to be in the phylum Chordata you must have some sort of spinal column. Fire ants, having and exoskeleton and being in the family insecta would have to be in the phylum Arthropoda.
A Niño de la Tierra is a "Jerusalem cricket/A potato bug."
There is really no way to treat an ant's leg because they are so little, but you could find it a safe area where it's leg can heal by itself.
