Termites

It seems we are having our house tented for termites this weekend. It's all the rage in The Jungle these days and since we found filings on our front porch, we're jumping on the bandwagon.
My question is, what do I need to know about termite tenting? The chick from the exterminator company was really nice and friendly and she said to get all the cats and plants out of the house, to bag up all the food and tell the neighbors to keep their animals indoors. Is that all there is to it? And does anyone want to come help me find all the spices and things I use once a year so have tucked into all the back of my triangle shaped cabinets have gone to? Or you an help me pack up ten cats and all their stuff to a very kind neighbor's spare garage type thing. Or just help me pack my and Tarzan's stuff for four days at my parents'.
Oy.
These things always seem so simple when I start out.

This is me, tired already.

I am so sorry!! What a mess!! I want pictures of the tent, does it have stripes and look all circus-y??

I love the comment "Tell your neighbors to keep their pets inside". Knowing how close your neighbors are (proximetywise) Your neighbors are going to have to leave too...
