$I’ve started to use LED disco lights for my karaoke nights rather that the traditional hot tungsten light. They not only use a fraction of the power (20 watt compared to 100 watt) and they don’t produce any heat, but did you know that bugs can’t (see) the light from an LED. If your house was only lit using LED’s and all your doors were open, no bugs would fly in pursuing the light. If your neighbour had the tungsten lights and all the door open, all the bugs would go there. Unfortunately the new energy saver light bulbs also invite the bugs in. So to keep moths and all from entering your home fit LED lights inside the house and give a gift to your neighbours by the way of all your tungsten bulbs and save yourself from all the horrors of a bugs life.$
