Thanks all - away from internet for a few days here so I apologize for not replying. Yup, termite poo. A neighbor confirmed. We realized we'd done a lot of hammering close by building some shelving and probably opened up the cracks between the overhead tongue and groove wood. -- I'm hoping it's old droppings, but we sprayed termite insecticide all through the cracks -- yes, after banging on the wood above, they came trickling out of there. I can't seem to get any more to come out, so each morning I recheck the area. So far, so good. The house was tented 8 years ago but might need it again. We'll just keep an eye on it. If we see more, we'll get termite guy in here pronto. Hotinhawaii, not sure about the 6-sided thing. My eyes are getting old!
