I always say, and I stick by it, that the best thing to use for nesting material is that which they use naturally in the wild. As far Lasius niger; soil. Not mud as that is too wet, but just normal soil from the garden. Over the years I have come to dislike using sand. I use garden peat; they seem to like it vary much.

No it may make it a tiny bit but not too much to cause you to not know what is happening.
