Attract bugs and don't last very long.,

This review is from: BUG LIGHT COMPACT FLUORESCENT 25 WATT SPIRAL CFL LIGHT BULB 10,000 HOURS REPLACES 100 WATT INCANDESCENT YELLOW BUG LIGHT BULBS
I live in Florida where there are a lot of bugs, especially in the Summer months. Thesse bulbs were adrertized to last 10,000 hours and not attract bugs. These bulbs attract a lot of Florida bugs! I had it installed in a fixture over my front entrance. The light was on most nights for 6-8 hours. The light output was satisfactory but attracted a lot of bugs. I had to constantly clean the bugs off the fixture and the area around the fixture in the ceiling. These bulb don't last anywhere near the 10,000 hours that they are advertised to last either. I wouldn't bother wasting my money again to buy these bulbs.

Reducing Light Pollution -- High Power, Low Range,

This review is from: BUG LIGHT COMPACT FLUORESCENT 25 WATT SPIRAL CFL LIGHT BULB 10,000 HOURS REPLACES 100 WATT INCANDESCENT YELLOW BUG LIGHT BULBS
These lights produce a clear, brilliant light that falls off quickly because it isn't a white light. We live out in the country and do not want to disturb our neighbor's stargazing, so having a non-white light is important to us. For city dwellers, light pollution is a natural part of city life, but living in the country allows us the chance to avoid light pollution and have a chance to stargaze out the window from bed -- a delectable luxury. A white light can be seen more than one mile away. We want only see any snakes that might be resting next to the porch. We want a bright, clear light so that we can clearly see anything near the porch for obvious safety reasons, as we live in rattle snake country.
Of course, we'd like to reduce the bug attraction, but as we installed the lights in February, we'll have to see check in the spring if we attract bugs. Most importantly, we are using a fraction of the energy we used with the previous incandescent bulbs and can just see the porch light from the end of the half-mile driveway -- providing the perfect range of lighting.

This review is from: BUG LIGHT COMPACT FLUORESCENT 25 WATT SPIRAL CFL LIGHT BULB 10,000 HOURS REPLACES 100 WATT INCANDESCENT YELLOW BUG LIGHT BULBS
We changed out our old CFL on our front porch because there was just a cloud of bugs around it in the evenings. After we installed this, they are virtually all gone. There are still a couple around, but they are stragglers and don't seem to be hovering around the light. We live in the Pacific Northwest if that makes any difference, as some reviewers have said it doesn't work so well for them. Might be the area they live, but it works great for us!
