The bottom line is...insects just don't feed on steel. Certain species of termites will bore through concrete to get to their favorite food wood. Likewise they have been known to bore their way through EPS to get to wood, and ants have been known to nest in certain types of EPS. The problem has been corrected by soil treatment, by creating barriers between the panels and the slab and by treatment of the panels. An approved insecticide can he sprayed into the bottom channel or on the panels to provide a barrier.
