If you put a test tube that is dark and connect it, light up the nest, they will move. What is the nest made of? I should have asked this way earlier.

If you lift up rocks with a colony under it you can find a lot of pupae(cocoons for L. Niger). I recommend taking only 10, as that is all the workers can care for.
When you accidentally reply to yourself…
