预计到2020年，LED照明将占户外和住宅照明市场的70%。虽然相对于传统照明技术，LED的使用促进了能源和成本的节约，但人们对这些广谱“白色”灯对野生动物、人类健康、动物福利和疾病传播的影响知之甚少。我们进行了实地实验，以比较四种市售的“家用”灯，一种传统的（钨丝）和三种现代的（紧凑型荧光灯，“冷白色”LED和“暖白色”LED），对空中昆虫，特别是双翅目昆虫的相对吸引力。我们发现LED吸引的昆虫比其他光源少得多，但发现“冷白色”LED和“暖白色”LED之间的吸引力没有显著差异。较少的苍蝇被吸引到LED比替代光源，包括更少的库蠓（双翅目：蠓科）。相对于竞争性照明技术，LED的使用有可能减轻对野生动物的干扰和虫媒疾病的发生。然而，我们讨论了与广谱照明相关的风险以及由于LED技术成本降低而导致的照明净增加。
LED lighting is predicted to constitute 70% of the outdoor and residential lighting markets by 2020. While the use of LEDs promotes energy and cost savings relative to traditional lighting technologies, little is known about the effects these broad‐spectrum “white” lights will have on wildlife, human health, animal welfare, and disease transmission. We conducted field experiments to compare the relative attractiveness of four commercially available “domestic” lights, one traditional (tungsten filament) and three modern (compact fluorescent, “cool‐white” LED and “warm‐white” LED), to aerial insects, particularly Diptera. We found that LEDs attracted significantly fewer insects than other light sources, but found no significant difference in attraction between the “cool‐” and “warm‐white” LEDs. Fewer flies were attracted to LEDs than alternate light sources, including fewer Culicoides midges (Diptera: Ceratopogonidae). Use of LEDs has the potential to mitigate disturbances to wildlife and occurrences of insect‐borne diseases relative to competing lighting technologies. However, we discuss the risks associated with broad‐spectrum lighting and net increases in lighting resulting from reduced costs of LED technology.
