Help Identifying Possible Pest Issue in Bathroom Baseboard
Hey all, I’m hoping someone here can help me figure out what’s going on with my baseboard in the bathroom, right next to the shower. I've noticed some damage and discoloration along the bottom of the trim, and recently I’ve been seeing very small bugs—black and ant-like—coming from this area. It looks like there may be some water damage as well, and I’m wondering if that’s what’s attracting them. I’ve attached a photo for reference. Do you think this could be a pest control issue, or is it more likely to be moisture-related? Possibly both? Any idea what kind of bugs these might be, and how to go about treating this? Thanks in advance for any advice! submitted by /u/dont_be_a_robot [link] [comments]
