Are These Insect Eggs?

I came home to my Florida wonder house and found this on the floor not near anything else. Any ideas?

Are These Insect Eggs? - small tan and brown objects near the baseboard

These are not eggs from any insect. This is wood from a termite eating your home. You need to get it sprayed right away in order to save the wood in your home.

This looks like Frass from termites...the termites chew the wood and leave behind this type of crumbly mess of sawdust and termite excrement. You should get an exterminator ASAP !!!! Good luck.

it almost looks like termites. They leave a dust of wood powder from knawing on wood

Umm...I made the photo bigger and it looks like there is brown mouse poop mixed in with food crumbs.

I am leaning to that you have a mouse who got into something and left behind quite the mess.

this photo is pretty unclear, even magnified

if you think they're eggs, they would be round and have a transparent, sac-like quality to them

from the picture it looks more like crumbs, or wood shavings.

As a retired termite inspector, these are drywood termite pellets, basically termite poop. You should call a professional as soon as possible to discuss treatment options.
