We'll need better pics if you want the species identified.

I accidentally froze all my ants

It's Camponotus for sure, but I'm not entirely sure what species it could be. You may want to compare with Antweb specimens. Are you looking to ID that insect on the right of the first two pictures? If so, we'll need some better ones from different angles.
