And will it suffocated the ant? cause my cotton are pretty dense


and uh,is it ok if the cotton is too damp?

If you put too much cotton at the end of the test tube, she will suffocate.

Depends on species, but just make sure that it isn't to damp that the ants drown.

Remove a little of the cotton to make it looser.

Yes, if the cotton is too loose, the ants can pull the cotton and escape. And, wild ants especially Argentine ants, Pharaoh ants and Ghost ants can get past the cotton and attack your ants.

Just enough to cover up the hole but not too much that it takes a lot of force to get it out. Approximately half a cotton ball, if that's still too tight then keep removing small bits of cotton until it's ok.
