Abstract

Problems associated with the use of fluorescent tubes in insect traps are resolved by providing a replacement lamp employing multiple sets of light emitting diodes that each emit light at different specific wavelengths each positioned within a translucent sleeve have a surface coated with an environmentally safe light diffusion material creating a pattern on the surface comprising areas of more intense light dominated by the light cast by a single LED separated by areas of less intense light where light cast by adjacent LEDs is more mixed.
