I've seen where people say to tape over drains to keep bugs out, and to put saran wrap over the toilets to keep the water from evaporating. just wondering if this is good advice?
Also, what temp should I keep the house at in the summer?
Any other tips or advice is much appreciated.

Thanks in advance
A lot of good answers here.
We do a lot of these but we fill small ziplock bags with water and set on the drains.
Seemed better than taping them
