Had to choose between a crawl space full of spiders or a roof in 95 degree heat yesterday

The job was a rewire for an old house in Tempe, and the only paths were a tight crawl space the homeowner said had 'some webs' or the roof with direct sun. I picked the roof, thinking heat beats bugs. Three hours later, my shirt was soaked through and I drank two gallons of water. Anyone have a better trick for picking the lesser of two evils on a job like that?

Made the same call last summer. Thought I was smart avoiding the spiders until I basically became soup up there.

Spiders are just part of the deal, you get used to them. A bit of heat is better than missing the whole summer, michaels95. You just need a good fan and to stay hydrated, it's not that hard.
