That's what I would do. I once got a letter from my management company that said, "we are conducting random apartment inspections tomorrow. be aware." This bothered me because I don't really like people in my house, and they didn't give the 24 hours notice required by law. So, I set up some cameras, broadcast it to the Internet, and told my twitter followers to watch my apartment for me while I was at work.

They never showed up.

Good reason why renting sucks. (It's not your house).

Yes and no. There are also situations where state inspectors can come into your bought house: building structural safety inspection, fire safety, pest control etc... It also depends on where you live, of course.
