Probably not. Ozone is inactivated pretty quickly by many sorts of organic matter. Termite nests are very far underground, and may not have distant outlets that will let ozone gas through...

However, it may destroy the chemical markers that help act as "road maps", and it may sterilize the colonies of fungus etc. that all insects depend on for survival. Worth trying...
