which color led is lethal to groundsquirrels and gophers ? They could be best-sellers.

I filed this thread under Useless Makework Science.

Now, the discovery of the light frequency fatal to mosquitos; or locusts... there is useful science. But actual work.

Can't have that.

Folks are missing the gem: LEDs can potentially drive away mosquitoes and other insects.

Where I live that’s a big deal!

An aside: I have a grow light. It has LEDs in both the blue and red spectrum, because those are the spectrums plants use. When it shines on an object the object appears purple.

I can attest that bugs do not fear red, blue, or purple light. I think they actually like it.
