I wish I could go barefoot, but it's not such a good idea here. We have Rattlesnakes, don't see the big guys very often, but we do have Pygmy rattlers that sometimes venture into the yard and they can be a little harder to spot. Fire Ants...Yes, and with all the tree's twigs. Which can hurt like the dickens if you step on one. And I'm always "On a mission" it seems and not always looking down at what I might step on. I have Sloggers in 3 styles, keep something at the back door and on the front porch. In the house tho...barefoot, I don't even like to wear socks except in the winter.
