Good! My garden is low on Lasius flavus! Most of the new queens will fly far away to mate, while others will fall prey to predators, so don't get too disheartened if no new nests appear next year; but with luck 1 queen might found a new nest in your garden if there is room and no other ants are close by, so fingers crossed nest mate.

I find both Lasius Niger and Lasius flavus very dominant in my garden

Oh, I find that Flavus are easily killed by Niger.
