Frog moss in outworld

I got some frog moss or pillow moss from my local pet store for my new isopod enclosure. After seeing it I decided to put some in my camponotus pennsylvanicus outworld. Has anyone had experience with frog moss? I'm afraid the ants might try to move their nest into it from their hybrid nest once the lights are out after reading some articles online about ants and moss. Any thoughts?

I don’t have frog moss, but I don’t know if Camponotus penn. would go through the trouble of relocating the entire colony. A satellite nest may be possible though.
