Default Perishing rubber?

Just wondering if my white dot rovers would perish if left on a floor with underfloor heating or by being in sunlight quite a lot?
Thanks

It wouldn't do them any good, that's for sure.

Keep them out of sunlight as much as possible, and keep them away from much heat, and keep them away from ozone creating things like large electric motors or welders.

Pretty much any rubber item should be stored in a cool dry area.

so keep away from direct heat and sunlight and welders and i think that this would mean that i shouldn't store my crawler in the cupboard where the underfloor heating manifold is then either?

Thanks
