They're tenting a house across the street for termites. I can keep my cat inside.but....?

I'm worried about the wild birds and my feeders. Even though the house will be tented across the street. Shall I take my feeders in for a couple of days?? Will the birds go to other places to get food and water? Haven't a clue.

    If it makes you more comfortable then bring them in. I don't think you have any worries but if you do worry then go ahead and bring them in. You've got nothing to loose. And the birds will find a different source of food for a few days. When the tenting is done you can put things back out and the birds will return.

    And I'd keep the cats in just because of their propensity for curiosity and the desire to sneak into things like a tent.

    Hope this helps.

    When they tent they use a gas. If any should leak out it will very quickly disperse and not contaminate the neighborhood. You do not need to be alarmed.

    Relax. There is very little chance of any wildlife being affected.
