Re: form boards left in place
Absolutely write them up.

ALL forms must be removed (unless the form is earth or designed as a permanent part of the structure).

Wood forms are calling out 'Here termite, here termite, nice termite, here termite.'

From the 2006 IRC.
- R408.5 Removal of debris. The under-floor grade shall be cleaned of all vegetation and organic material. All wood forms used for placing concrete shall be removed before a building is occupied or used for any purpose. All construction materials shall be removed before a building is occupied or used for any purpose.
