I have some cellulose deposits in a line between the toilet and the vanity in a bathroom. I remove them and they come back sometimes days sometimes hours. It is non metallic although it has the appearance of rust. It is always in a straight line.
I have pictures but can not post on this site.
Not sure how to look at this, exterminator, plumber, carpenter, etc.
Any information would be appreciated.

What is a cellulose deposit? Never heard of such.

Limescale, calcification, mineral deposits, etc.

Use lemon juice or vinegar or products made for mineral removal. Is it in the edge of vinyl tiles?
