Here's some info for ya:
1. Bugs come up through the drain.
2. Some people really do cover their drains when they go away to prevent bugs from coming up through the drain.
3. Sometimes, small critters will find their way up the drain as well - frogs in particular.
4. Often, bugs will come in through open doors and spaces between screen windows and the windowsill, and use drains as their nesting location. They lay eggs under the flap of the kitchen sink drain and one day you'll notice upon rinsing the dishes that there are a dozen tiny little flies hopping around the sink. Congrats - you now have a household of adorable baby fruit flies.
It happens.

Friends of ours are snowbirds from NY. I went over to check on their house occasionally. They put cellophane over their commodes. Went once and checked the commodes and there was a small tree frog swimming in it. Flushed him down the commode.
