Welcome back to the Camponotus Crew! (New topic, old one got too long)

I caught two Camponotus albosparsus queens last night! This species is also quite special to me since it's my first ever ant colony I've kept.

Heavy rains last night, hoping for flights tonight

I caught at school this morning, some kid took the DANG tube(He plays with all my stuff idk why), let the queen in his backpack, where there is so much lead, and I eventually caught her. She died of toxicity

That's so sad. Reminded me of the time when I gave a friend a Camponotus queen at school and someone knocked the test tube off and it broke. And when you said there's lead in the kid's bag is it pencil lead or is it actual metal lead (element 82 symbol Pb), I know it probably sounds funny that I asked this question but I thought pencil lead (graphite) is non-toxic.

I doubt the toxicity of lead killed her I bet it was whatever turned all his books pink(Mold I think)
