Oh, are German mosquitoes different or is it really just placebo?
Thinking about it:
If I leave the window open with the light on in summer there will be hundreds of mosquitoes in the room (together with ~50% other critters). Even if no one was inside.
Window open without light: a dozen mosquitoes at max (as counted by suddenly switching the light on).
Whatever is known about other species is not correct about our breed.
- hcknwscommenter 5y agoThat's not UV light
- singularity2001 5y agofair comment. the "UV" trap lights are not pure UV either though.
- llampx 5y agoInteresting thought. I wonder if its because of the swarm mind of mosquitoes "knows" that where there's artificial light, there are people. Or evolution has favored mosquitoes which get attracted to light at night.
