Can you give me the moisting percent for the nest, what they eat(I think it is insect but im no o sure if it is only insect) What is their habitable nesting place like is it wood? sand? rocks, etc..

Looks more like Camponotus nearcticus or C. caryae to me. You would treat them the same way as any Camponotus. All ants outside of certain members of the Myrmicinae subfamily depend on insects for protein.
If you enjoy my expertise and identifications, please do not put wild populations at risk of disease by releasing pet colonies. We are responsible to give our pets the best care we can manage for the rest of their lives.
