My wood chips and saw dust as mulch?

15 years ago

I'm a woodworker and produce a large amount of wood chips along with their sawdust. I've been using it for mulch around my trees and perennials. My step son told my wife that you shouldn't use my wood chips/sawdust as mulch because it draws termites. Now my wife says "I don't want that mulch within 100 feet of my house". Do I have to stop using it? It seems that "everybody" uses wood chips from the big box stores as mulch all the time.
