So, do yellow "bug" lights really help to keep bugs away?

Many people have used them for years in outdoor lights, porch lights, garage lights, etc., to keep the bugs/night flying insects away. But do they really work to keep bugs away?

Bugs are attracted to the light of plain white bulbs because they can see blue or ultraviolet light. Yellow bulbs don't repel bugs; they just can't see the light as well. So, while they don't really keep bugs away they are a good solution to not attract them if you need to light an area.  

Good news is on the horizon, too.  The light from LED bulbs does not product ultraviolet light. So in the future you will be able to use a white light outdoors to help keep the bugs at bay.
