Tenting is the final answer and usually only used in extreme situations.

I've been to your house many times and have yet to fall through your floor with my fat ass......

Me thinks te problem is probably not bad eough for tenting.

The problem is that I have been finding these fuckers inside and outside the house

Subterranean: Termites live in the soil and must maintain contact with the ground or some other moisture source to survive. They build earthen tubes from the ground into the structure for protection from predators and to help maintain a moist environment. In some rare situations, if water and wood are available from a source other than the soil, subterranean termites can establish a colony with no ground contact.

I am wondering if they are coming up in search or water or something

my garage is attached, so if they do one, they do it all . . . which means moving mattresses, food etc out . . . as well as having to find a place to stay . . . . somewhere to park the bike unless I don't want access to it . . . how much did it cost to do just the garage?

I guess they use Vikane (sulfuryl fluoride) now (doesn't slip thru the tent as easily)
