Julie, I believe one example would be the Synergetic bulb. My understanding is that it provides two separate peaks of light (one within the UV spectrum and one within the green range in the visible light spectrum) that attracts a wider range of pests.
The key would be to use a bulb that attracts the pest(s) you are dealing with. --Dan Dan Wixted Pesticide Management Education Program (PMEP) Cornell University Ph (607) 255-7525 525 Tower Road FAX (607) 255-3075 CALS Surge Facility psep.cce.cornell.edu<http://psep.cce.cornell.edu/> Ithaca, NY 14853 dj...@cornell.edu<mailto:dj...@cornell.edu> From: pestlist@googlegroups.com <pestlist@googlegroups.com> On Behalf Of jmcin...@famsf.org Sent: Thursday, February 18, 2021 2:30 PM To: MuseumPests <pestlist@googlegroups.com> Subject: [PestList] Green Light Pest Trap? Hello, Pestlist I am curious about the green light traps that are mentioned in this article describing the Louvre's new storage facility. The article doesn't go into much detail, but does say that the "Green lighting fixtures trap and kill bugs like the common furniture beetle.". Is anyone familiar with this green light, and in what ways (if any) is it different than your standard UV light trap? https://www.nytimes.com/2021/02/12/arts/design/louvre-lievin-conservation-center.html?action=click&module=Features&pgtype=Homepage Best, Julie McInnis Collection Care Specialist Fine Arts Museums San Francisco -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MuseumPests" group.
