I've had to tear down a wall of drywall in my laundry room for a while now, so that I could get to the dryer vent that had completely disconnected inside the wall. While doing that, I tore down the adjoining wall so that I could add insulation within the exterior wall, and the joist space between the floors. I started ripping out the wall and discovered a nice little surprise.
Luckily the ants were long gone, but cleanup was certainly fun. It was good that the only wood they'd eaten was just furring strips too. It was interesting to find that the previous owners had installed some foam board within the wall too, because it's not in any other basement walls.
Here's a closer look at one of the furring strips that they turned into cardboard.
