Is this done by termites?

I opened a wall of an old house and found some wood in terrible shape. There is no sign before ripping off the drywalls. I was told by a contractor there that it's termite. Never dealt with this thing.

Is this done by termites? What's the best way to treat the termites and kill it forever?

Thanks

Lei

Hi Lei, I have opened up many walls on my properties and never seen anything like this before. I feel 90% sure that this is done by termites. I would recommend you to call an expert on this because they can tell you where the root is. There is a possibility that there could be more but that is like opening up a can full of worms. It's your call at the end of the end of the day. It won't hurt to call a company and they can go in and also give you an estimate maybe? I know you will find a solution. Best to you!

sure, already calling for professionals.
