Default Controlling dry wood termites

We found dry wood termites in our house, and fumigation is not an
option for us. A termite inspector suggested local treatment with
termicides based on Pyrythrin. But I could not find such a substance:
looks like Pyrythrin is a very mild insecticide, and it is not used
against termites.


Google for pyrethrum, the generic name.
(Pyrythrin may be an error or a brand name.)
