First time keeper, we caught 3 Camponatus Penn. queens and got them into test tubes. 2 with wings, which they tore off within a day. One of those two died in the last 3 days, and tiny white worms seem to be coming from her body. (5-10 in number, about 2mm long)
Is this something we should be concerned about for the other two queens?

their is nothing you can do about those maggots. For the other queens i would not worry to much because it is pretty rare for this to happen for camponotus (first time i heard about this).
