    would a cheap black light bulb attract insects to a white sheet like a mercury vapor lamp?

    • @InsectHunter

      John Long yes black lights and a white sheet work great! I will hopefully make a video soon to show how to do it!

      Awesome! I have a 5 year old son that is currently a budding entomologist!

      John Long that’s great! Pick a night that is supposed to be warm and you should find quite a few insects at night!

      Thanks Liloc. Glad to hear the encouragement and positive feedback! I may do some more goofy videos in the future, but I will try to make sure they are marked so folks know they are especially for kids.

    Baby's are scarier than any bug... also! I'm thinking about going to nabraska or Colorado for etymology. I'm graduating next year and I'm really scared...

      Corbin Jose haha babies like bugs aren’t as bad as people think! There are a lot of programs that do entomology! I have worked with Texas A&M, Purdue and the University of Idaho Entomologists. If any of those interest you please contact me and I may be able to connect you with people who can help you get involved with a program.

      Insect Hunter I would absolutely love that!!! The only reason I thought of Nebraska was because it's the only college I could find that offered a major in etymology. And I'm half indian, so I could go to Colorado for free. Maybe also Texas,I think? Having help from you would be amazing! If you want to contact me or anything, I don't mind exchanging Emails or something..?

    Over the last couple of years the so-called "insect apocalypse" is becoming more and more observable. I am 51 and started collecting as a kid and insect have dissapeared from the environments in central California that they once thrived in. Porch lights don't produce and cars radiator grills and windshields are clean. :(

    • @yoteango

      Porch lights not producing can also be from LED lights not emitting the same wavelengths as other lights. It's not the sole reason, but can be one of the factors.
