If you have pine trees taken down, and the tree company chips them up, can you use those pine chips around flowers, shrubs or will they draw termites? I live in the south east.

I don’t think that they will draw termites but it may acidify the soil and rob some nutrients from the soil as it breaks down.  It would be better used under shrubs and trees than among flowers and vegetables.
