Camponotus Queens Keep Trying to Tear Cotton

I have a few camponotus queens and a few tore enough cotton to escape their test tubes. What should I do to stop them? I have quarks for the test tube, but would that cut off air?

I would suggest using a lot more cotton or a tinfoil ball.
My current colonies:
-Miniature Military(formica neogagates)
-Black Hearts(crematogaster cerasi)
In search of new camponotus colony
[Have a look at antmaps.org]
