Dear All,

We are in the study to replace our 250W sodium lamps with LED type.
The concern is, since those sodium lamps installed inside our product warehouse, the anti bugs/insect type is highly required.
Is there any LED light which meet the requirement of anti bugs/insect?
What is the specification of LED light which need to be concerned for making selection to meet the requirement of anti bugs/insect?

Thank you very much

Insects can perceive light in the 300-650 nm range, but prefer light that is between 300-420 nm which includes UV light. A light’s UV output is probably the most important factor in its attractiveness to insects.

So stay away from that range...
