You need some good hard freezes to kill off those bugs. With most of the British Isles in Zone 8, it's sort of iffy whether insects and grass will go dormant. That's the case with American Zone 8 places, but then again, they also average warmer than the UK does, so if it's different where you live pardon my ignorance. However, I know for sure that spiders and mowing grass are never an issue if you're in Zones 1, 2, or 3.
Grass here has been dormant for a while, it hasn't moved an inch in ages. I couldn't say when exactly it stopped growing, sometime late October or early November perhaps. Seems like a long time, anyway.

But THEN AGAIN there is no need to compare places in the same zone with the same kind of climate.
Amazing how heat is always downgraded in the forecast models, but cold outbreaks, oh yeah massive upgrades with each update
Tuesday/Wednesday looking ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTiNG with 0C uppers like in mid winter and southerlies straight from Antarctica. BOM are forecasting 23C for that day, but I would expect it wont even crack 18C And ofcourse once again, Melbourne largely misses out on most of the heat that is affecting anywhere inland
Melbourne - the one hit wonder. Everywhere else has an album

record heat, they broke all time record last friday 41.8C

LOL here the cold and heat outbreaks get downgraded. There is supposedly an easterly bringing proper cold air at the end of next week. It was iniatitally bringing -5c uppers now
-10c uppers. It keeps upgrading. So im a happy bunny for now, however the direction of the cold air is on a knife edge. We are VERY lucky that a easterly is heading over us and not into iberia like last year.
No offence but 0c uppers will definately not give 23c. To get temperature in winter you add 9c on and 13c in summer. So its gonna be 15c at most. Im really surprised that 0c uppers reach australia in the summer. Are you sure its not plus 5c and in the FI?
We have to wait to sunday to see proper cold weather. A full week!!
I think a cold snap is likely but the computer models are still unsure how cold it will be. A week is a long way off.
