We study the effect of WIMP annihilation on the temperature of a neutron star. We shall argue that the released energy due to WIMP annihilation inside the neutron stars might affect the temperature of stars older than 10×10⁶ years, flattening out the temperature at ~10⁴ K for a typical neutron star.
