I actually spend time trying to increase my "bug" population for the sake of a show quality lawn. There are a lot of myths about wood chips that have been proven false by peer-reviewed University trials.
I was just not speaking about you, I was talking in general its not a good thing to do. YOU also mentioned you have 20" between the chips, and the foundation, again I, was just stating in general its not good to put the chips directly against the foundation! And yes bugs are great for your lawn.
