Termites will attack the sapwood, but not the heartwood.

They can, but they will usually only do so as a last resort. If you are worried about them eating your nice teak furniture, I recommend laying a pile of "junk" wood nearby so they go after that instead. Then get it sprayed!

Is cork flooring prone to termites?

Cork flooring is generally resistant to termites because it is made from the bark of cork oak trees, which contains natural compounds that deter pests. However, if the cork is improperly sealed or installed in an area with high moisture, it may become vulnerable to other forms of damage, including potential pest infestations. While termites are not typically attracted to cork, maintaining proper humidity levels and sealing the flooring can help enhance its durability. Regular inspections and proper care can further protect against any pest issues.
