Is this BBA ?

This started to appear at the top of my biggest piece of drift wood in the low tech tank, the distance between this part and the light is ~ 3 - 4 inch
After my weekly maintenance last Friday I scraped and syphoned it from the wood, but now it returned back in less than 4 days and more than usual, so I am wondering is this BBA or the slime that comes out of the drift wood?

My fish are not interested in eating it, so any way to get rid of this other than the manual scraping and syphoning, it seems to be unharmful but it is ruining the aesthetics !

That looks like wood fungi. It's normal and harmless and will eventually go away. Just manually remove it should come off pretty easily. Otos and shrimp will eat it as well.
