You don't need one. And if you have don't put it under the entire nest but only under about a quarter of it, so the ants can choose what to put where (usually the put the pupae to where it is warm and the eggs/larvae to where it is moist).
 

- Second, Is hot glue gun posion to the ants?

No, but a lot of ants can chew through it so don't rely on it for sealing your setup.

We should respect all forms of consciousness. The body is just a vessel, a mere hull.
