And wooden object you touch crumbles to sawdust. If the item is so large that it cannot fit within a 3-foot radius, a 3-foot radius volume of them etal is rusted and destroyed. Magic items made of wood are immune to this spell.

You may employ termite touch in combat with a successful melee touch attack. Termite Touch used in this way instantaneously destroys 1d6 points of AC gained from wooden shields and bucklers (to the maximum amount of protection the armor offers) through woodrot. The same goes for wooden armor.

Wooden weapons in use by an opponent targeted by the spell are more difficult to grasp. You must succeed on a melee touch attack against the weapon. A wooden weapon hit is destroyed. Striking at an opponent's weapon provokes an attack of opportunity. Also, your must touch the weapon and not the other way around.

Against wooden creatures (wood golems, wooden constructs, all plant creatures, etc.), termite touch instantaneously deals 3d6 points of damage +1 per caster level (maximum +15) per successful attack. The spell lasts for 1 round per level, and you can make one touch attack per round.
