What Insect Or Rodent Gnaws At A Treated Wood Deck?

My deck has a hole through a board about the size of a silver dollar. Also, the wood at the bottom of the board has been pulled away from the edge in roughly 2 - 3 " pieces and is hanging there. Is this something that a boring insect, or a rodent (squirrel), would do?

      It could be shrews, hard to say, they are destructive little critters! I don't think that termites and ants are too particularly going to get sick from treated wood either, I would contact an exterminator, or try some home remedies with insecticides, but you do want to look for the ones that aren't going to be bad for pets and people. Hope this helps, good luck.
