It's about time these came in Yellow. I find this yellow bulb very useful. It dramatically decreases bugs at my home..... it's not supposed to repel all of them. It a compact fluorescent bulb inside ..... of course it takes time to warm up!

These are best left on all night or for extended periods ..... don't put these in your motion sensors as you'll be disappointed because the light isn't instant .... and the lifespan will be greatly reduced by the constant on/off ...... this is compact fluorescent's dirty little secret.

Within a couple of days after installing this bulb in a recessed fixture over an outside doorway, the yellow lens fell off and smashed on the steps. It did seem to attract fewer bugs while it lasted.

I installed a pair of these on the front of my house. They consistently have about 20 bugs flying around them, which is just about the same as the my white CFL floodlights on the back of my house, so I'm not impressed with the bug stealth of these Feit floodlights. I have a few other CFL bug lights around my house that are not floodlights that I bought at Home Depot and those attract zero bugs. I was hoping these Feit lights would have a similar performance and they don't. Disapppointed.

This bug light works great except for 1 minor imperfection. I use 2 of these bulbs at my shop and they stay on for an average of 10 hours a nite. They save me about 4 bucks a month on my electric bill over incandescent bulbs. However, after a while the yellow lens does fall off as other reviewers have talked about. The fix is to put some gorilla glue on 3 sides of the bulb and that will solve that issue permanently. Good Bulb with 1 imperfection Easily Fixed.

I purchased the same brand and type of lamp from a local home improvement store. The lamp itself works fine. However it has a very fragile face, easily broken while even still in the package. Most CFL outdoor flood lamps are pretty rugged, this one is not. Treat it even more carefully than you would an ordinary light bulb.
