I have a structural pest license so I am very familiar with most termites. In reality they are pretty fragile insects. Pretty much anything like lacquer thinner, DNA etc. should kill them As long as it comes in contact with the nymphs.

Good Luck

my parents collect folk art carvings, and my mom has always had success putting them in the freezer for a day.
