Artificial lighting at night can also disrupt nocturnal insect reproduction. And, predators such as owls and bats may learn to hunt around artificial lights where prey becomes more concentrated and vulnerable.
The exact reasons why nocturnal insects are drawn to light remain unclear, but recent research suggests that some nocturnal insects use light to maintain stable, level flight by orienting their bodies so light hits their upper surface.
Turn off the lights if you can. There are so many lights around my area that are unnecessarily bright, and left on all night for no reason.
Theres a school near me, with three of the brightest lights shining straight into a bushy area. I guess they’re there to light up the side of the hall they’re attached to, but damn they’re bright.
