Gloves ,like shoes/boots, offer ideal dark homes for spiders and a few other insects. That said, in areas of the country where the Brown Recluse spider lives (a really nasty dangerous spider) gloves and boots are prime places for them to live.

So always bag your gloves when you store them and clean out your boots/shoes with a gloved hand before you put them on.
