We have 2 large oak trees on our property that I've been told are over 100 yrs. old. Early this year I noticed at the base of one of the trees what appeard to look like piles of coffee grounds around the base. At first I just swept it away, but since the piles are there again and I even found what appeared to be an earth tunnel along the lower part of the tree (much like you find for house termites), I figured that's what my tree has.
I can't see anything that looks like termites as I poke through some of the holes created by whatever is affecting my tree. I only see ants on the tree, which is another possible sign of termite infestation.
Is there something I can do to stop this possible termite infestation that won't hurt the tree?
Thanks in advance for any help you can recommend.
