Hi, Your first 2 sentences are fine except it is it's not its. In my opinion the word question is the better choice in your second sentence. With regard to your final sentence you shouldn't use "the" in that context.

Here are my thoughts

Three questions make it easiler to help you....

You should pay more attention to "its" usage.

1) ok

2) risk loosing your money in an attempt to win some

3) Insects like/ prefer hot climate/ environment. Weather is doable but temperature is not the right choice of word for this context.

Yes you're right, temperature should be used with high/low and not hot/cold
