Why is it that insects go inside lamps and die in there?

Friday, January 6th, 2012
asked:


There may be a very obvious answer to this but it always freaks me out, seeing a lamp somewhere and noticing how it is filled with dead bugs and stuff. Why in the world would those insects kill themselves by going inside the lamps? Is it because they are attracted to light? (That would seem a little dubious since they should be noticing how the warmth of lamps burns them to death, right?)

How long should it take for just a section of car paint to dry under lamps?

Monday, November 21st, 2011
Em asked:


It’s been drying for about 2 hours already, and it’s only about a foot and a half by a foot and a half section.
It’s being done at a shop, and I think because of the cold weather he said it’s harder for it to dry but that he has lamps over it. I’m just trying to see if I can get my car within the next few hours.

Is it safe to have heat lamps underneath my mobile home?

Saturday, October 22nd, 2011
Blueberrygal asked:


A water pipe burst and the wood, insulation and vapor barrier got wet. The repairman pulled the insulation out and vapor barrier back to expose the wood beams. He has heat lamps and fans aimed at the beams for several days and nights to dry out the wood to prevent mold. Because they are on day and night, I worry about safety. He says its safe and he checks them everyday. Is this standard practice? Do you think this is safe?
