I hope it cools down for you soon!

Oh, haha, I was raised by New Yorker's (as in NYC)  I'm paranoid as fu*k. I live on the second storey. My front windows face a walkway (outdoor). So I leave them open only a few inches and lock them in place with a certain type of device that locks hard. At least the cats can stick their noses against the screens and breathe some night air. I'm still nervous, but I just have to be reasonable with myself.
Thankfully, my bathroom and bedroom windows are way up high. No one would be able to reach them without a ladder and there's a high iron fence around the back of the building. So I can safely leave those open. Then I use fans overnight.
Thank you for asking, unlived 
And thank you for the Vegemite suggestion! A store just near me does sell it, and of course, Amazon. I've never tried it, but would like to.
