<div dir="ltr"><div><div><div><div><div>I thought I'd debunk the idea that straw bale and cob homes are immune to termites. As of yesterday, termites began erupting (literally little volcanoes) out of a wooden bench on a cob base in the cob house, and from a dead-man in the cob wall, and I'm finding them on the floor the straw bale house too. There's something going on with their life-cycle for them to be appearing at the same time in both places.<br>
<br></div>1. Has anyone else had experience with termites in natural buildings?<br></div>2. Does anyone know of any natural means of eradicating them?<br></div>3. Are there best practices and architectural details to prevent this issue?<br>
