If you heat the opposite side from the water tower/clover the glass, they'll move down pretty quick. Another option is to blow air into the outworld. It'll make them want to find a more suitable place to nest.
thanks it worked and now the colony is moved in, the queen seems to like hanging out on the ceiling and walls though.

That's normal. Most of my queens chill on the wall somewhere near the water towers.

that's what my formica do
Queen laid a small bunch of eggs, also the colony had a big fat larva but for some reason it turned into a smaller larva that looks like a deflated banana
Edit: nevermind it pupated

Do you know if the mights are harmful to the colony yet?
I realised that they are not mites but I'm not sure if they can be harmful
-camponotus sansabeanus: 20 wokrers
