I took a chance and ordered the 2300K LED bulbs for the outside coach lights from Amazon. 2000K was supposedly the optimal color range for attracting the fewest bugs. (2300K was close enough.)

I’ve had them on now 8-10:30 the last 3 nights, and no bugs on the house. It is a softer light than I’m used to but it’s adequate for the task.

If anyone is interested these are the bulbs I got from Amazon. Cost $15.99 for a 4 pack.

Dimmable Vintage LED Danse Edison Bulbs 6W, Equivalent 60W, Amber Warm 2300K, Antique Style ST58 LED Filament Bulbs, E26 Base, 4 Packs, Each Individually
Brand: Dsane
