You are actually asking two questions, both rather complicated.
- Is there a chemical that induces avoidance in ants (or at least some ant species)?
- Can you teach ants to avoid an odor.
After a quick glance at the literature, I’d say that there are some chemicals that induce avoidance.
But I was frankly too lazy to look into the learning aspect.
Shouldn’t be impossible. There are addons for Zotero (reference manager) to check CrossRef for citation count and one of the post-publishing review platforms for comments on the paper.
