Drive away mosquitoes with light
Especially in the summer, when the air is warm and the evenings are long, small buzzing insects disturb the comfort. Sleep is hard to think of when mosquitoes are looking for blood. In addition to old home remedies, yellow light is a proven way to get rid of the insects.
What you need:
- yellow lightbulb
- Anti-mosquito energy saving lamp
Drive away mosquitoes without chemicals
- A simple and non-chemical variant to Mosquitoes to drive away and ward off is yellow light.
- While the humming bloodsuckers are literally attracted to white light, they do not react at all to yellow light.
- It is therefore recommended that you equip some of the lamps in your home with a yellow light bulb.
- You don't have to change the bulbs of all the lamps at once. It is enough to use one or two lamps in the evening, if that window is open, let it burn, and that still donate enough light.
- You can find yellow lightbulbs in every hardware store. As an alternative, there are now yellow energy-saving lamps that are directly identified as anti-mosquito energy-saving lamps.
- On the balcony, terrace or in the garden you can provide the party lighting with mainly yellow lanterns or lightbulbs to protect yourself from mosquitoes.
Insects - light and scents as a deterrent
Bugs, mosquitoes and flies can not only spoil you from sitting outdoors, ...
Yellow light doesn't always help
- Unfortunately, the yellow light does not protect against every mosquito attack. Because mosquitoes are not only attracted by white light, but above all by the human body odor. The olfactory mixture of CO-2, lactic acid bacteria and sweat is always a temptation for mosquitoes.
- Therefore, you should either close the windows in the evening and at night. Or you can instead protect yourself from mosquitoes with yellow light as well as with fly screens and mosquito nets. So the annoying animals stay with you safety outdoors.
- After all, you hardly leave the lights on while you sleep. And unfortunately you will find some mosquitoes anyway - whether you use yellow lightbulbs or turn off the light.
