Hello Fellow Formicarians 
I think I have Lasius Niger living in my garden, please help identify.
I'd like to know If I am right that the species living in my garden is indeed Lasius Niger
I lured them out with a piece of honey soaked bio tissue.
All the ID-template questions I could awnser:
I made these pictures in my backyard in Velserbroek Netherlands just now.
Just now is June 20th 2023 @ 00:25AM (local time)
They live in between the bricks around my garden.
They are about 2 to 3 mm max.
To me they look black with golden bands on the abdomen.
Can't tell you anything about the nest because it's probably under the stones.
Here are my best images I can make (few out of 100 triest (at least)):
