Sand pouring out of outlet?

Question

There is sand looking stuff pouring out of my one outlet when I go to plug things in and out of it. I vacuumed inside of it a couple days ago... I still don't know what it is. I have seen no ants in with it... I don't think it's sand. I think there's another name for it... Can someone tell me what this is? And whatever it is can you tell me what's causing it? Also, Have you experienced anything like this before?

-Thanks everyone.

Answer 1

This is probably from carpenter ants or termites.

Answer 2

Perhaps it's wood and not sand, in which case you may have some kind of insect damage.

Answer 3

That sand is TERMITE p**p.  U have a Infestation and will need termite control to eradicate the pest.
