The photo shows factory original OEM sawdust created by Amish craftsmen. :M This was found in a cavity between the shower and bathroom wall in our TT.

They simply don't vacuum up sawdust and debris. Where they hack a hole in luan, the cutout piece gets left in there. Have also found things like screwdriver bits, screws, cable clamps and bits of wire. Personally, I think it's shameful not to spend a few seconds vacuuming up as they go.
I doubt it's sawdust from ants, but not impossible. What you could do is go look for some OEM sawdust and compare it to what you have with a magnifying glass. You might find some under the tub (or shower) by removing the cover on the access hole. Ant sawdust should be much finer and consistent size.
