Need help with heating pad.

My Camponotus novaeboracensis colony LOVES when I use a reptile heating pad under their THA mini hearth XL, but when I use it the glass always fogs up and gets the whole nest wet (not to mention it makes it very hard for me to see them). Is there anything I can use/do to prevent this from happening?
Why keep ants that aren't found in your yard?
There are so many fascinating ants right where you live!
I disagree with the keeping/buying of ants that aren't in your area.

My best guess would be to only cover the glass opposite side of the water tower, or put it on the opposite wall of the water tower
Ants I have-
camponotus compressus colony- the shadow warriors.
Pls just let me have a tetramorium colony
