I lived in the NW of England until recently. Pesticides have killed the bugs and it very rarely gets hot. Last year it rained throughout the summer and didn't really get any warmer than 15C.

Also, houses with thick stone walls keep out the heat. Years ago we had a long heatwave and it got no warmer than 20C inside.
