Bug-Free Lighting: Why Amber Insect-Repelling LED Floodlights Are the Outdoor Upgrade You Didn’t Know You Needed
Published on  Updated on  

If you’ve ever hosted a summer braai, relaxed on the patio, or entertained guests under the stars, you know the struggle: insects love your lights just as much as you do. But what if your outdoor lighting could actually help keep bugs away while still providing reliable, high-performance illumination?

Enter our newest innovation: the Amber Insect-Repelling LED Floodlight range. These clever outdoor floodlights use a warm amber 1600K colour temperature that is scientifically proven to repel common flying insects like mosquitoes, moths, and flies—making your outdoor space more comfortable without needing zappers, sprays, or candles.

How Does Amber Light Repel Insects?

Most insects are attracted to blue and white light wavelengths—the very ones emitted by standard LED and fluorescent bulbs. Amber lighting, specifically at the 1600K wavelength, falls outside of the range that most bugs can detect or are drawn to. That means your space stays lit for you, but less attractive to those uninvited flying guests.

Fun Fact:
Studies have shown that warm amber lighting can reduce insect attraction by over 70% compared to cool white light.
