Discussion: Do Yellow Bug Lights Keep Bugs Away?
You may have noticed you see yellow bug lights in the summer. The most common place to see one is on a porch.
I recently replaced two outdoor light bulbs with dusk-till-dawn bug lights from Sunco. Immediately noticed less bugs around lights which means less bugs caught in the never ending spider webs.
Anyone else do this?

Good tip @Mike D. I want to make lightpoints for my house and sauna house in near future as it's get autumn and winter here. So I will now look for a yellow glass screen for these lights. The yellow I also like more for the warmth. Hope I have bought lights with good CRI which have larger color frequency range and give more natural yellow as result
