It’s routinely 100° in our garages in the summer if we drive in our hot cars and close the door. The melting point of aluminum is 1,221°. The softening point of Ziploc bags is 230°. Supposedly waxed paper has a melting point of 420°. I also keep extra toilet paper, paper towels, and Kleenex in the garage. I’ve seen a couple big roaches in the garage in two years, but they are the outside kind and seem befuddled and slow on a dry concrete floor. I just stomp them.
