In much the same fashion as a printed circuit board is designed, your piece of wood is impregnated with a chemical pattern which has areas of attraction and repulsion for termites.
After applying the termites, their progress is monitored for a period of time. When they have finished their work, they
are rapidly retired via some means, such as irradiation / heat / cold / pressure / vacuum / chemicals / predators / being shifted to a new workpiece.
My insectly gnawed "Welcome" sign stands out in high relief. And if the termites could read, they would have realized they were lied to.

Genius! Lying to termites is good, folks, they're little bastards and they deserve it...
<twitch><mumble> I was there, you know, I mean, on the receiving end of a terrifying programme of psychological warfare from termites, they would eat a novel before I could finish it </mumble></twitch> |

Yeah, you just need to add an IP address to them and...what was the question, again? |

They would make better rep-eaters, shirley. (Sorry.) |

Croissant for idea, supercroissant for the fun-to-sayness of the idea subtitle. |

I had an idea a while back for a Termite
Power tool - never fleshed it out and
don't need to now, because this is much
better. Get your termites to chew on

The steampunk in me likes the idea of termite circuit boards, but our vendors have long enough lead times to supply us in the old fashioned manner. (+) |

Write it, and I will vote. |

[Lurch] Maybe I'm wrong, but I think, that if at this point in your life , you are having a problem with termites, little signs ain't gonna work. But I will vote yes only because I picture you putting up little signs with your right hand, with your medication in the other. |

Chocolate might work. How can they not like chocolate? |

Darn. I thought this was a
Thermite Router |

Have you posted it yet? .. Hello [8th of 7]... |
|

I wonder if you could do this by routering out the sign with the smallest possible bit, then gluing a nonchewable surface flat against it and releasing the termite. I assert the termites will chew against the place where there already is some damage, enlarging the routed space and giving the illusion of organicity. |
