Nothing, just that the temperature is a little to hot here for the time of year. normally they need at least 4 moths of hibernation. 6 is better. but with the shorter winters over here they have only 4.
If the colony has a shorter hibernation (than about 4 moths) they are not so strong to start back up. The queen laying eggs and the workers to work. ;)
Here is what i experience with Lasius niger
