Did I cook my night crawlers?

My plastic bins of red worms and Canadian night-crawlers were kept on the floor of my office in the low 70s. I moved them both on top of my computer in the mid-80s to encourage them to be fruitful and multiply, which the red worms were already doing, but which the night crawlers were not.

The night crawlers immediately started large straight-line sex orgies. Now a month or so later, the night crawlers have all suddenly disappeared. I don't find them around the office, so I suspect they died and quickly decomposed. The red worms are just fine.

Did I cook my night crawlers? Should I expect that a lot of cocoons are now in the bin and will hatch someday?
