Two termite damaged boards

Q: There are two lines of what appears to be termite damage, on just two floor boards. Can I just use wood filler for these?

A: I would recommend taking the boards out and replacing them. You might be surprised. Termites have a way of eating the inside of a board, leaving only the outer skin intact. You might find in removing these 2 boards that a few others also warrant replacing.
