Things like turning the water off, or unplugging things... At minimum I shut the water valve and unplug pretty much anything I can. I'll usually set the thermostats to be a little more extreme than usual. Do you do anything?

Why do you unplug everything?

Reduce chances of bad electrical things happening. 1 electrical fires, 2 damage due to surges, I unplug some stuff during thunderstorms too.

They cannot get in anyway, nobody is there to let them in.

Like moths, you still don't want to have a bunch of them jammed up against the windows trying to get in.
