People are becoming more aware of the effects of artificial lighting on the human body and wildlife, especially the impacts of lighting at night. A new study led by researchers from Newcastle and York universities found that street lights may disrupt plant pollination as they attract moths; however, by switching off street lights for part of the night, the interruption can be minimized.
Apart from bees, moths also play an important role in the pollination of plants to supplement the day-time work of bees and other pollinating insects. These night-time pollinators are critical even for food production, as they help pollination for food crops such as peas, soybean and oilseed rape. Lighting at night disturbs pollination by attracting moths to the light source so that they would be away from the fields and spend fewer time feeding and pollinating.
