If you are only going to be gone for a week or two no need to tape drains and cover toilets. I would recommend putting out several roach baits/poison under sinks, and near exterior doorways. Turn the water off to the house, set temp between 80-83', close all blinds and you are set. If you are gone longer than a month I would do the full tape, saran wrap thing. We have done it and have not ever had a problem. Good luck.
