With snow melting I have discovered evidence of an infestation of termites. 113864
They've certainly been busy this winter, though I don't think they've damamged the house. 113863

Actually Steve Schlumpf has been very busy this winter and will probably start sharing "the rest of the story" with us soon. I know we're all looking forward to it. :D

So what species are these termites? Stihl or Echo?

I have similar evidence of infestation in the hedgerow behind the house!
It seems to get bigger at the end of each weekend!:eek::eek:

I hear those Thompson "v" termites are the worlds most voracious termites. :)

Must be a infestation going on cause I have the same problem. Out near the back alley there is a huge pile.

With my sawmill, and the Thompson V groove, I am being overrun by the stuff. Locust will slow them down.
