bug light
Porch moth magnet
A bug light is a yellow-tinted outdoor bulb designed to attract fewer insects than standard white lights.
The yellow wavelength is less visible to most flying insects, making it useful for porches and patios: We switched to bug lights so we could eat outside without moths swarming the table.
Sometimes called bug zapper lights, though true bug zappers use ultraviolet light to attract and electrocute insects rather than repel them.
