Default DIYer termite extermination?

Awl--

My understanding is that here in NY, termite baits etc. are not available to
non-exterminators, but that elsewhere they are.
Anyone have knowledge on this? Mebbe in NJ, CT, PA I could pick up a kit??
Over the web?
Is cordane the method of choice? Others??

Any other methods, idears, tips, etc.? Killer ants, mebbe??

The 1920 house I'm in had a slight termite problem long ago, some minor
damage, don't *think* there is one now, but I would still like some peace of
mind.
I think I found and dug up one nest when I first got the house, 10 yrs
ago--saw "swarming".
But never again.

Hey, the house is still standing!!

The goddamm termite people who initially inspected the house did not catch
the problems that were there--nor did the asshole and very expensive home
inspector catch other problems. Useless.

TIA.
