i recently found this wood chips used for smoking meats and stuff, it's supposed to be 100% natural, and there are various wood types, orange, pecan, can't list all but pretty much this, things like celulose powder arent really a thing i can buy (i live in brazil, importation and stuff is expensive) so i have to find a way out, i was able to start a termite colony, but without any protein, they didn't survived longer then the first nymph stages, could this be good for them?
