care during pest control visit

[diet otaku]

i just received notice from my apartment complex that pest control will be spraying every apartment on may 1st. the notice says small animals can be kept in bedrooms that do not block access to a bathroom - problem is, BOTH bedrooms in my apartment are the only access to their respective bathrooms. what are my options for protecting my degus during the pest control visit?

I think I'd see if one of my friends wouldn't mind a cagefull of sweet little Degus as house guests for a couple of days.

moving them out of the apartment for the day just wasn't feasible, so my roomie's mom suggested draping a sheet over the cage, which i did. the degus don't even seem to notice the difference.
