Yep. I put on some gloves to do landscaping. Ironically I put them on because I wanted to avoid betting bit by the many possible hazards, and discivered that a family of Brown Widows decided to live in them rent free.


Spent the next 3 days going from the chills straight to sweating to death. At least they weren't the dreaded Brown Recuses.

But if you have a 1960s house with a low pitch roof, then yeah it is a baking oven up there.

I have a house built in 1997 with a very high roof. I can stand full upright in a large part of it and not hit the rafters.
