I have a question about working on a crusty, dirty, spiders infested engine compartment. I am working on a 73 Mustang that has not been started for 20 years and was wondering about getting spider bites. I bought a box of latex gloves to keep the grease off my hands, but will they protect you from a spider bite. Can a black widow or a brown recluse bite through latex gloves while I am reaching around in this engine compartment?????I know they are there, I have killed three black widows already while sorting through parts in the trunk and changing the tires. My girlfriend told me to put a bug bomb in the engine compartment and in the car before I start. I did this to my house this fall before winter and ended up with more spiders than I had before. Does anybody know what to do and will the latex gloves be ok for this??????
