First I've heard anything about direct contrast of UV light to not. I've heard CO2 and NaCl before though.

*IR light, in the interest of avoiding confusion.

I work in mosquito control, it's been generally fairly well known as far as I know. Light traps use black light bulbs as one of the methods to attract mosquitos because the lack of visible light cuts down on the number of bycatch like moths but the bulb still generates heat to attract the mosquitos, usually paired with dry ice for CO2.
