During the cold they just go deep below the freeze zone.

I've seen a spider, mosquitoes and white sock flies in the snow in Alaska.

The only way I have found to get them out of my yard is to buy the over and out stuff and spread it on the whole yard, I am sure they just move next door but they are not in my yard anymore... the problem is if you don't spread it every 3 months they will come back quick..

They ain’t got no blood. Why would cold temps bother them?

This is the correct answer.

Cold temps DO kill some insects. Warm days immediately preceding a hard cold snap invariably fool some bugs out of the wintering holes, and they are killed for their trouble.
"Why does Alaska have so many mosquitos?"...easy. They're adapted to it. If you took a whitetail deer from Alabama and released him in Minnesota for the winter, he wouldn't survive it, despite being the same species as the whitetails in Minnesota.

I always like to rid the yard twice in fall and the twice in spring. Then during summer much may not be needed for mounds, but ants seem to still be around.

There was a Mythbusters episode where they tested what bugs could survive an apocalyptic type disaster. Roaches and ants and flies did really well. But I think roaches won of I remember right.
