I don’t think the issue is where the termites might have come from, or what the tenant might do to solve the problem. The issue is that the house they are paying to live in is infested with insects to an extreme degree – this is a breach of the lease. The tenant should advise the agent and landlord of this, and tell them they will contact Fair Trading if the situation is not rectified.
Keep paying the rent, a breach doesn’t justify a breach.
