Insects can communicate with pheromones, body language, can work together such as bees, recognise individual colony members,display emotions as far as socialising goes.

In terms of pleasure and pain can react to stimuli of a pleasant nature, and im turn when presented with threatening stimuli they may produce a stress or anxiety reaponse, can experience pain and discomfort although to what extent I dont believe we know.
