oh yes
I see quite a few chewing on wall foam, liners and also on SpaFlex pipe. These little buggers seem to find something enjoyable in soft plastics.

not to nit pick but youre proabably dealing with ants. not termites. point is to treat with chemicals, ants poisons are less toxic therefore more
attainable; therefore cheaper. if it has 3 bodysegments,, it is an ant. if it hs two body segment(no waist) it is a termite

Yup... They are termites...
I would have to believe an entomologist that was brought in on one of the problem sites. Pretty weird but they go after all these chemical based
goods!
