You manage to pull your feet out of the shoes and see that they are covered in latex. You are horrified, but remember somewhere in the back of your mind that you aren't supposed to use petroleum jelly with latex condoms… because it DETERIORATES latex!
You run to the bathroom and look through the medicine cabinet and find a large jar of petroleum jelly. You open it to find… it's empty! It looks like you forgot to buy more when you used up the last of it in your, um, nocturnal self-pleasuring.
You do however see a small jar of Vapo-rub and, knowing it’s a petroleum based product grab that.
You open the jar, scoop out a good portion and immediately begin rubbing it on your feet.
The latex thing shudders, it begins to pool on the floor as it retreats from your feet but you're not going to give it a chance at all. You scoop out the entire jar and rub it all over the thing.
It quivers once or twice and then, melts away dissolving completely. You poke at it with a pencil. It's completely lost it's cohesiveness and is dead.
You mop it up with some paper towels and throw it in the garbage.
You have an idea! There's no more petroleum jelly or vapo-rub, but there IS a place you might find something that would work. You go to the garage and look around. On a shelf you find a can of 40 weight motor oil and you grin.
You remove your clothing and coat yourself in the oil.
You soak a pair of shorts in another can and put them on. You go back out side into the night to face the latex things. You go back to where the wolf was and notice a small puddle of latex goo. You pick it up but it slips out of your greased up hands, it tries to get away but you scoop it up with both hands. It writhes and shudders as you rub it down with grease and it, like the bit that was in your bathroom, shudders and dies. You are completely unaffected…
You grin evilly… you have a weapon! If oil does this, what might gasoline, acetone, alcohol, kerosene or jet fuel do to these things? And just think… those things are pretty flammable too!
