Tenting home for termites

Just found out I will be needing to tent and fumigate my house for termites...... Darn!
Are there any concerns regarding my electronics, speakers (esp the drivers), or sensitive items like turntable cartridges??
From my reading on line so far, it seems that the gas disspates totally without a residue, but I wouldn't want to take any chances if there is any real risk. Have any of you gone thru this before??

Do they use a gas - or is it some kind of vapor/mist/fog (i.e. wet)

If the latter - I'd get my system out of the house - especially my speakers - they have paper cones.

Thankfully - termites don't survive the winters up here in Canada!

Here in Arizona, termites rule...but homeowners get the last laugh.  I've seen many homes get treated for the critters by the executioner drilling into and installing spikes around the home...no home here is tented, yet the job gets done.
